San Diego Airline & Airport Employees Lawyer

With all of this activity, there are several types of injuries that are particularly common for ground crew:

• Repetitive stress injuries from lifting and carrying
• Slip and fall accidents from loose cables or obstructions on the runway and/or ramp
• Hearing loss due to excessive noise from planes and other equipment on the tarmac
• Other serious accidents involving being struck or crushed by moving objects

What Are Common Flight Attendant Injuries?

Flight attendants are on their feet constantly throughout flights, ensuring that passengers are properly cared for and receive everything they need. Because stewards and stewardesses are typically moving about during flight, they can sustain certain injuries that normal passengers may not:

• Muscle sprains or bruises from in-flight turbulence; more serious turbulence can even lead to concussions or lacerations
• Repetitive stress injuries from helping passengers stow and retrieve baggage from overhead compartments
• Other emotional or psychological disorders that result from dealing with unruly or aggressive passengers on a regular basis
