In many cases, on-the-job injuries are immediately apparent such as cuts, amputations, head injuries from falls , back injuries, or neck injuries. However, there are injuries that result from your work that are not immediately and may take months or years to develop. Carpal tunnel syndrome is one example of an on-the-job injury that could take a while to develop. Asbestos-related disease such as mesothelioma is another condition that can take years to develop. Men and women who develop mesothelioma often do not show symptoms until many years after they have left the job. If you have suffered an on-the-job injury you are most likely entitled to benefits under Workers’ Compensation. Only an experienced workers’ compensation attorney can advise you of your rights following your on-the-job accident or injury. Workers’ Compensation was created to ensure that employees who are hurt on the job are provided with monetary awards, hopefully eliminating the need for litigation. However, the workers’ compensation process and paperwork is very complex and often difficult to understand for the lay person. Often time, benefits are denied because a form was not filled out properly or because a deadline was missed. Workers’ compensation also provides benefits for the dependants of workers who are killed or injured in work-related incidents. Workers’ Compensation entitles employees to receive benefits following an injury for: · Medical expenses · Temporary disability · Permanent disability · Vocational rehabilitation · Death benefits · Even mileage going to and from medical appointments If you have been disabled on the job, you need legal representation to receive the maximum benefits coming to you. The “system” will do everything it can to minimize your benefits or delay your benefits. The paperwork for Workers’ Compensation is difficult, time-consuming and confusing. You should let an experienced legal team sort this mess for you. If you think your company does not subscribe to Workers’ Compensation, then attorneys may be able to pursue a claim against the employer as a “non-subscriber.”
