Types of Accident

 Accident   are of different  types. They may be  classified as major  and minor  ones, depending  upon  the severity of the  injury. An accident which  ends in a death  or which  results in  a prolonged disability to the injured is a major one.  A scratch or a cut which  does not seriously disable him/ her  is a minor  accident but an  accident  nevertheless,

 An  accident  may be internal and  external. If  a worker falls  or an  object falls  on him  or her it is  possible  he or she may  show  no external sings of injury. But her  or she may have  fractured  a bone  or  strained  a muscle or nere which is an internal injury. A workers  may be  disabled by  an injury  for an  hour  half  a day a day a week  a month  or a few months. If  he or she recovers from  such a  disability his or her disability is temporary. If  the in fury is such that he or she will  never recover  fully  his or her  disability  is permanent.

Again  a disability may be  partial  or total . accidents  may be  fatal or non  fatal.
