Earning a living for yourself and your family should not put your safety at risk, but there are jobs that can be dangerous and in every job there are occasions when accidents can and do happen. That is why employers are required to carry insurance to pay for medical treatments and therapies for their employees in the event of injuries on the job. In a perfect world, this insurance coverage would pay the injured person’s expenses, no questions asked. However, in a perfect world, no one would be injured while doing their job. When your claim is delayed, denied, or deficient in payment, an experienced personal injury attorney like Casey W. Stevens can help.

Workers Compensation is Not as Straight Forward as You Think
Unlike most personal injury claims, negligence and recklessness does not have to be proven in worker’s compensation case. In order to be covered under current worker’s compensation statutes in Georgia, there are two questions about the action that caused your injury that you must answer – was your injury job related and was the action that caused your injury required or essential for your job. If you are the victim of an illness, work injury, work related trauma, or a personal injury accident while at work, the amount of workers compensation benefits or accident compensation you receive can vary drastically depending on your employer’s workers compensation coverage and their reaction to your claim. Some of the injuries and illnesses that could entitle you to workers compensation benefits include, but are not limited to, the following conditions:

Repetitive motion injuries such as carpal tunnel
Hearing loss due to equipment noise
Illness due to exposure to dangerous substances
Injuries from falling objects•Back injuries due to heavy lifting
Injuries due to falls
Injuries from vehicle accidents, including delivery trucks and forklifts
Burns and eye injuries due to chemical splashes

Ideally, your employer and their insurance company will cover all of your medical bills, pay you for missed work, and work with you to accommodate your injury in your job. After an on the job injury some of the workers compensation insurance benefits you could receive include the following:

Medical care
Temporary disability benefits
Permanent disability benefits
Supplemental job displacement benefits
Vocational rehabilitation
Death benefits

Any resistance or denial of benefits that you deserve should prompt you to seek legal advice from a qualified personal injury attorney like Casey Stevens.
