Probably not. Workmen's Compensation only covers injuries which are not expected to occur normally through doing your job. So for example, if your job involves heavy lifting, then since hernias are commonly caused by heavy lifting, Workmen's Compensation probably would not cover a hernia. On the other hand, let's say you don't usually do heavy lifting at work, but a filing cabinet got tipped over by your boss trying to move it, and you reached to catch it and got a hernia, then perhaps it would be covered. Make sense?
