What is Workers’ Compensation?

Workers’ compensation is a form of insurance that employers carry to cover the costs of medical care and to provide cash benefits for employees who are injured on the job or who contract illnesses as a result of workplace conditions. Injured or ill workers can receive workers’ compensation that covers medical bills and, in some cases, lost wages. If a worker is determined to be eligible for workers’ compensation, they will receive the full amount of compensation regardless of whether they were partly at fault for the accident or the exposure to hazardous materials. Employees who are found to be at fault because of the use of alcohol or drugs on the job or from deliberate action, however, may be ineligible to receive workers’ compensation.

Injuries and Illnesses That May Be Covered by Workers’ Compensation

Accidents on the job are often the result of unsafe conditions. These are not the only types of medical issues that can result in workers’ compensation being awarded, however. Exposure to certain hazardous materials can lead to serious medical conditions. Treatment for these conditions and lost wages can also be covered by workers’ compensation.

Disputes by Employers or Insurance Companies

To receive workers’ compensation, employees must demonstrate that their medical issues are work-related. Employers and insurers can dispute workers’ compensation claims, which can delay payment or even prevent workers from receiving fair compensation for injuries or work-related illnesses. The attorneys at the Di Lauri & Hewitt Law Group can provide practical help in navigating the workers’ compensation application process and in ensuring that you and your family members receive the fair compensation to which you are legally entitled.
