Hi,
It depends on the type of the injury and accident claim.
Lets say it was a simple car accident and your injury will last for a year. Your lawyer may need all documentation to help you claim the money form other party.
You may have 3 years in most cases to make a claim of the date of the accident.
But every case is different so please ask someone for legal advise.
If you asking on behalf of a company management you should ask an Health and Safety inspector and Insurance policy planners to help you with this question. In this case I may be 5 years.
CONCERNING TIME RESTRAINTS ON REPORTING AN ACCIDENT, THE REASONING BEHIND REPORTING IT IS THE QUESTION. FOR INJURY CLAIMS, THERE MUST BE SOME SORT OF PHYSICIAN FOLLOW-UP ASAP. FOR REPAIRS TO THE VEHICLE CLAIMS, THEY MUST BE MADE WITHIN 2-3 DAYS REASONABLY.

Depending on the injury. If its a bad sprain or and break, then keep the ice on it for a while. For minor injuries, there is no need to keep it on there too long
It stays on your credit report for ten long years and they won't remove it.
To process a work injury claim depends on many factors such as the severity of the injury, the specialists or doctors who have to sign off on the claim and also on your insurance companies investigation.
Yes, but you will need to look at your policy to determine if there is a specified time period that you must report claims. Regardless, the carrier will want an explanation as to why it took you so long to report it.
All policys will contain wording like, 'you must promptly report all claims' it is never wise to 'wait' report the claim immediately, you could contact your states dept of insurance to see if there is a legal time limit. There is of course state statues for physical damage, injury etc.
Example: If a driver caused you to take drastic actions to avoid a head on collision and you was hit from behind but didnt recognize you was injured for at least 2 days later can you still file an injury report in the stae of Florida, or how long do you have to report the injury?
In Oregon, if you are involved in an accident that results in death, disappearance, or injury, you are required to file an accident report within 72 hours of the incident. This report must be submitted to the Department of Transportation. Additionally, if the accident involves property damage exceeding $2,500, a report is also required.
"If an individual files a work claim, then there is not set time that an individual can stay out of work. It will depend on the injury that the person has."
False
Depending on how you keep it, it can last several days and maybe even a week.
