Amazon Work Injury Claims in North Texas

Injured While Working at an Amazon Warehouse? Here’s What You Need to Know.

Are you dealing with a work-related injury from your job at Amazon in North Texas? If so, it’s important to know that Amazon is a Texas Non-Subscriber — meaning they do not participate in the traditional Texas workers’ compensation system. Instead, they carry private insurance, and this changes how your injury claim must be handled.

With Amazon continuing to expand across Texas and hiring tens of thousands of warehouse workers nationwide, the pressure on employees remains high. This high-demand, fast-paced environment can lead to a greater risk of injury — especially in warehouse and fulfillment roles.

If you’ve been hurt on the job at Amazon, it’s critical to contact an attorney experienced in Texas Non-Subscriber work injury cases. At Sandoval Armstrong, PLLC, we help injured Amazon workers in North Texas take the right legal steps to ensure their claim moves forward — without unnecessary delays from the employer.

The longer you wait, the harder it may become to secure the compensation and medical treatment you deserve. Don’t let Amazon’s private insurance delay your recovery or put your family’s financial stability at risk. Not an Amazon case? View list of North Texas Non-Subscribers Companies.

Types of Amazon Work Injuries in North Texas
When Speed and Pressure Lead to Serious Harm

Amazon’s fast-paced, high-pressure work environment has led to a growing number of serious injuries among warehouse employees — especially in Texas, where the company has invested over $7 billion since 2011 and created more than 22,000 jobs. With numerous fulfillment centers across North Texas, Amazon workers in our region are on the front lines of this demanding operation.

The combination of tight delivery deadlines, long shifts, and physically demanding tasks creates a work culture where employees often feel pushed beyond reasonable limits. Internal and third-party reports have linked Amazon’s productivity quotas to increased injury rates — particularly during peak seasons like the holidays.

Whether you’re an inventory receiver, picker, packer, driver, or machinery operator, every role at Amazon comes with risks. Many workers spend 10-hour shifts on their feet, often lifting, bending, and moving heavy packages — sometimes at a near-running pace just to meet performance targets.

Common Amazon Injuries We See in North Texas Include:

Repetitive motion injuries (affecting arms, hands, and back)
Muscle strains and sprains from lifting heavy boxes and crates
Injuries from falling merchandise or unsafe shelving conditions
Accidents involving forklifts and other warehouse machinery
Slip and fall incidents on slick or cluttered floors
Truck driver injuries due to prolonged sitting or road hazards
Joint inflammation and chronic pain from overuse
Carpal tunnel syndrome
Back, neck, knee, and shoulder injuries
Ankle injuries and joint damage
Occupational illnesses, including asthma and respiratory issues
Catastrophic injuries, including loss of limbs

If you’ve been injured working at an Amazon facility in North Texas, your case may fall under Texas Non-Subscriber law — and you may be entitled to compensation even if Amazon’s private insurance makes it difficult.

Types of Compensation You Might Expect

An Amazon workers’ comp claim can result in payment for all your accident-related medical expenses. You can also receive benefits to cover lost wages while you’re temporarily or permanently out of work. You’ll get these benefits every few weeks for as long as the policy permits. Non-subscriber policies often do not offer permanent disability or death benefits to injured workers. However, you might be eligible for these benefits through a personal injury claim.
