Workers' compensation laws are a tradeoff between employees and employers. Employees give up the right to sue their employers for full damages in exchange for specific benefits without the burden of proving fault. Before workers' compensation laws, employees had to show fault on the part of their employers in order to be compensated, making work injury claims much harder to prove.

Workers Compensation

If you are hurt on the job, you are entitled to a system of complex, overlapping benefits that can make your head spin. The insurance companies know this, and they count on people walking away from their claims just because it is too complicated to know what to do. Don't let that happen to you - if you have been hurt on the job you are entitled to understand what benefits you do and do not qualify for, whether it is medical care, wage replacement, job retraining, or a lump sum award for a permanent loss of body function.

If you have any questions about what to do if you have been hurt on the job, give us a call. Remember: There is never a charge to have the law explained to you.
