Five flight attendants and one passenger were injured when their trans-Atlantic B777-222 encountered clear air turbulence enroute.

Narrative

Upon finishing up our service we encountered extreme clear air turbulence. Flight attendants were thrown around and were grabbing onto things since we were not able to get to our jumpseats. There was nowhere to go as there were only two jumpseats for our six crew members and the last passenger row was full. Five of us were injured in addition to one passenger who was injured when she flew into a door. We diverted to the first suitable airport where medics came on and talked to the passenger and left. We walked off the plane and were told that if we wanted treatment we would have to walk across a parking lot and take a bus to a medical facility. We were hurting at the time and this was painfully impossible. We went to the hotel where we were contacted by the company that evening. We were told that even though there was an additional crew on board to replace us if we were injured we would be required to work unless we went enroute sick leave. We worked back to the States except for one of us who ended up on her back with two pots of hot coffee landing on her. Supervisors met our flight upon return to our domicile. I filled out an occupational [injury] report on-line and followed up with a visit to the medical facility at the airport. Nothing else was done. We were told to do these reports.
