What Are Workers’ Compensation Benefits?
These are financial and medical benefits provided to employees who are injured or become ill in the course of their employment. These benefits aim to cover medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, and a portion of lost wages.
What Injuries Does Workers Compensation Benefits Cover?
In most cases, these benefits may cover the following injuries:
- Fractures and sprains
- Back and neck injuries
- Repetitive stress injuries
- Burns and scalds
- Head and brain injuries
- Eye injuries
- Amputations
- Respiratory conditions from workplace exposure
Keep in mind that these injuries must have been sustained while on the job or aggravated by the job itself.
What Are Examples of Illnesses Workers’ Comp Insurance May Cover?
Besides physical injuries, this insurance may also cover the following illnesses:
- Occupational diseases (e.g., lung diseases from workplace exposure)
- Poisoning from workplace chemicals
- Infectious diseases contracted at work (e.g., COVID-19 for certain professions)
- Stress-related illnesses, if work-related stress is excessive and documented
Can I Get Compensation for My Pain and Suffering?
Unfortunately, workers’ comp does not cover pain and suffering. But you may be able to file a lawsuit in cases involving a third party or gross employer negligence, which allows you to recover non-economic damages such as pain and suffering.
Can I Get Compensation if I Was at Fault for the Accident?
Yes, you can, and that’s because workers' compensation is a no-fault system. However, keep in mind that this eligibility may not apply to intentionally self-inflicted injuries or injuries resulting from drugs or alcohol.
What if I Cannot Afford To Hire a Workers’ Compensation Lawyer?
Our lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you can still seek legal representation without immediate upfront costs. In other words, the fee is free unless we win.
