Workers’ Compensation
If you are injured on the job or if death results from a workplace accident, you may be entitled to recover worker’s compensation benefits.
Worker compensation programs cover a wide range of injuries and job related illnesses, including traumatic accidents, occupational illness or diseases occurring over a period of time as a result of exposure to hazardous substances, environmental conditions, or repetitive body motion. Because workers' compensation is a no-fault insurance program, injured employees do not have to prove an injury was someone else's fault to receive benefits.
New Jersey statutes govern the benefits available to you and set limits on amounts awarded and time limits for filing workers comp claims.
Worker’s comp benefits available to you may include:
- Medical costs
- Temporary disability
- Permanent disability
- Replacement of lost wages
- Physical rehabilitation
- Death benefits for surviving dependents
When you are injured on the job or if your workers’ compensation claim has been denied, a worker’s compensation attorney can explain the law and rules as related to your situation, protect your rights and work to maximize the benefits you receive.
