Common Causes Of Burn Injuries

Burn injuries cover a wide range, from mild first-degree burns to severe third-degree burns. There’s even a fourth-degree burn, which refers to burns where the injury affects the bones and tendons as well as the skin.

Work-related burn injuries occur for many different reasons, including:

Fires at work
Direct contact with a hot surface, especially in commercial kitchens
Boiling water poured onto someone’s skin
Exposure to an open flame, such as a blow torch or gas flame on a stove
