How Do I Know If I Am Covered By Worker’s Compensation?
It is essential for all workers to understand that employers in the State of California are legally obligated to participate in the worker’s comp program. The employer also is required to cover all costs associated with purchasing the insurance coverage for their workers. So, all Walgreens employees and almost every other worker in the state are covered by worker’s compensation, even though they are not paying for this vital protection.
How Does Worker’s Comp Help If I Get Hurt On The Job?
As the victim of a workplace injury, you are entitled to many benefits paid to you by the worker’s comp program. The most helpful for most injury victims is the substantial medical care coverage provided by the program. Each worker can receive up to $1M in medical care and expense coverage per injury incident. These funds can be used to pay for a hospital stay, required surgery, doctor’s bills, physical therapy, rehabilitation services, essential medical devices, prescription medication, and many other healthcare-related goods and services used to aid you in your recovery.
If you are unable to work while you are healing from your injuries, the program will reimburse you for up to 66% of your regular weekly income that is lost. This money is paid to you and can be used for household expenses or any items you would have paid for with your earnings from your job at Walgreens. If your injuries are so severe that you will never fully recover or heal and face a lifetime of physical limitations that limit your future earning potential, you can also receive long-term disability payments to supplement your income. Finally, if you will never be capable of returning to your job at Walgreens but could work in another capacity, you can seek free vocational training from worker’s comp to prepare for a new career.
Do I Need A Legal Team To Seek Worker’s Comp Benefits?
In many instances, your employer will be helpful as you open your worker’s comp claim, and you might not need to seek help from Normandie Law Firm. However, in some cases, the employer works to keep their staff from filing worker’s comp claims or refuses to provide basic information for them to open their claim. In these cases, the Normandie Law Firm’s expertise will be precisely what you need to get the benefits you deserve.
It is also critical to remember that the average Walgreens workplace injury is minor, accounting for the average Walgreens worker’s compensation claim ranging from $2K to $20K. However, if you suffer severe injuries while on the job at Walgreens, it can be very helpful to have the Normandie Law Firm staff working to ensure that all your medical expenses the program covers up to $1M and that you have less stress and worry about debt so that you can focus on healing.
Can I Sue Walgreens For Additional Compensation?
In most cases, injured employees cannot file a personal injury lawsuit against their employer. Instead, they must take the benefits provided by worker’s comp as full compensation for their losses and expenses. Only in cases that involve gross negligence are hurt workers allowed to file a claim against their employer. Gross negligence is defined as a situation where the employer or management of a company acts in a manner that demonstrates disregard or a lack of concern for worker safety. If you believe that gross negligence was a factor in your Walgreens workplace injury incident, please contact Normandie Law Firm today to discuss the facts of the case with a skilled and successful personal injury attorney.
How Long Do I Have To Take Action To Secure Benefits And Compensation?
Victims of a workplace injury must open their claim with worker’s compensation within 30 days of the injuries. If the claim is not opened in that time, the victim will be denied any benefits to cover their medical expenses, lost wages, or any long-term disability that the program might have provided them. If you are involved in an on the job injury that was caused or partially caused by gross negligence and are filing a personal injury lawsuit, you have two years from the date of the injury incident to file the case with the court. If you do not have your lawsuit filed with the court within the time limit, you lose the right to seek additional compensation from your employer via a lawsuit. Please reach out to Normandie Law Firm to discuss the critical time limits and how they could apply to your Walgreens injury incident.
No Upfront Legal Costs
When you work with the experts at Normandie Law Firm, there is never any added stress due to upfront legal fees or expenses. Our firm only gets paid after our client is paid. So, only when you have the compensation needed to cover your legal costs are you asked to pay Normandie Law Firm. Finally, you owe our firm nothing if our legal experts fail to win your case and deliver the compensation needed to cover your legal costs.
Please make time at your earliest opportunity to contact the staff at Normandie Law Firm to learn more about your rights as a workplace injury victim and how worker’s comp will assist you in overcoming the hardships caused by your Walgreens on the job injuries.
