        "description": "**Yes, file workers' comp against your employer, and sue third parties like subcontractors or equipment makers if they were negligent.** Utah law allows both workers' comp (no-fault) and personal injury lawsuits beyond your employer.[4][5] Key factors: (1) Prove duty, breach, and causation for third-party claims; (2) common liable parties include property owners, defective machinery manufacturers; (3) non-employees like delivery drivers can also sue; (4) workers' comp is usually exclusive against employer.[3][2] Notify employer promptly, gather evidence like OSHA violations, and hire a lawyer to pursue all avenues. Acting fast identifies all responsible parties for full compensation."
