Workers' compensation is an insurance program that provides benefits to employees who suffer job-related illnesses or injuries, regardless of who is at fault.
The benefits include, but are not limited to:
- Medical benefits
- Temporary benefits
- Permanent benefits
In the case of a worker who died as a result of their employment, workers' compensation provides benefits to the dependents of the worker.
