Generally, not. It's not considered a work-related injury if you haul off and pop someone, even if they deserved it.
need to find a workmen comp dr in oh that work with rsd
It is my understanding, at least in Indiana, that you can not sue Workmen's Comp, but you will be offered a settlement once you are released to return to work. I base that on my mother being on Workmen's Comp because of falling on a wet floor at work and breaking her shoulder in three places in July or August of last year. Her experience with Workmen's Comp has not been a pleasant one. She consulted an attorney who told her that she would be offered a settlement from Workmen's Comp once she was released to return to work, and that she had no choice but to accept what was offered. I don't know how many months ago she was released, but it has been several, and to my knowledge she has not received any type of settlement. The attorney told her that if she sues anyone, it would have to be the company she works for if she is not satisfied with the settlement from Workmen's Comp. I knew of another person who had a similar experience with Workmen's Comp. Both my mother and this other person had injuries that are permanent and will affect them the rest of their lives. I do not know when you sustained your injury, but my advise would to be to contact a good Workmen's Comp attorney and get his or her advise and guidance. Workmen's Comp does not always do what is right for the injured party. In fact, in the two cases I stated, Workmen's Comp did not do right toward either party.
Workers' Comp is designed to cover all work-related injuries.
Workmen's Comp insurance. Your employer should have been paying the premiums. If you are not covered by Workmen's Comp, you can always sue the employer if you were not violating any safety rules when you were injured.
only if your surgery is the result of a work related injury. Sorry.
If you claim is denied, you can try and appeal it. You will only be given workmen's comp is the injury happened on the job.
no
no, workmens comp is for time lost due to injuries at work This would be a short term disability claim if you employer offers STD.
You may have to claim it, but it is nontaxable.
Workmens comp. only covers work related accidents, you have to actually be doing your job when you are injured to get workmans compensation.
If it happens "on the Job" workmans comp. will cover.
yes
