Understanding Worker’s Compensation
Worker’s Compensation is a state-mandated insurance program that provides benefits to employees who suffer job-related injuries or illnesses. These benefits are designed to cover medical expenses, lost wages, and rehabilitation costs, as well as provide compensation for permanent disabilities.

- Slip and Fall Accidents: Injuries from slips, trips, and falls at the workplace.
- Repetitive Strain Injuries: Conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome from repetitive motions.
- Construction Accidents: Injuries from falls, equipment malfunctions, or being struck by objects.

- Occupational Illnesses: Diseases resulting from prolonged exposure to harmful substances or environments.
