Ask an expert: Should I report getting hurt at work, even if I was injured while playing around?

Answer: Yes. You should report the injury AND tell the truth about how it occurred – even if you know the injury is totally your fault. In North Carolina, the workers’ comp rules require you to have an injury by accident during a break in a worker’s normal routine in order for you to qualify for benefits.
