Injured Workers Warned—Think Before You Post on Social Media

GLENWOOD SPRINGS, Colo. - Rezul -- Injured workers filing for compensation may be putting their cases at risk without realizing it—simply by using social media. According to a local workers' compensation attorney, what you post online can significantly impact the success of your claim.

"Even a well-meaning photo or comment can be taken out of context and used to dispute the seriousness of an injury," says Mathew Kaufman, Colorado workers' compensation attorney at Kaufman & Kaufman, LLC. "That's why we urge anyone going through a workers' comp claim to avoid posting anything about their injury, activity level, or case."

Kaufman & Kaufman, LLC. recommends that injured employees stay off social media entirely until their claim is resolved. If they must stay online, they should avoid physical activity photos, check-ins, or any updates that could appear to contradict medical restrictions.
