Bradley Dworkin
Most workers who are injured in Illinois do not realize their legal
rights. If you are injured on the job, you are entitled to the following
benefits:
- If you are forced to miss work because of your injury, you
may be entitled to receive temporary total disability payments.
These are weekly payments that equal two-thirds (67%) of your
weekly salary.
- You are also entitled to see two doctors of your choice. The
employer should pay 100 percent of all reasonable and necessary
medical expenses of these doctors. Furthermore, these two doctors
can refer you to other doctors, and your employer must also pay
these expenses.
- Lastly, you may be entitled to permanent disability benefits.
These represent a settlement for your injuries.
In addition to your basic rights, the Workers Compensation Act
governs other aspects of workers compensation law. The Illinois
Industrial Commission rules on these cases, and thousands of cases
that the Illinois courts have ruled on establish the legal precedent
for future claims.
