Across Newburyport and the North Shore, plenty of people juggle a day job with weekend or seasonal shifts to keep the household afloat. That work ethic deserves respect, and a great meal at The Park Lunch (one of our favorites). We're proud to support this community.

Hurt your shoulder at your weekday construction job, and now you can't lift trays at the restaurant on weekends either? Tell your lawyer about both jobs, including what each pays and what you can no longer do, so income from both counts in your workers' comp calculation.

Storms, heat, slippery surfaces, falling branches, poor visibility, and lightning create real risks on the job. In workers’ comp, the question is not just what happened. It’s whether your work put you in a position to be hurt.
