Workers Compensation
Workers Compensation
When you are hurt or injured while performing your duties as
an employee, there is a specialized area of the law that allows
workers to recover money damages including lost wages, medical
bills and a permanency award for pain and suffering. Under New
Jersey and Pennsylvania law, employers are required to have
workers’ compensation insurance in order to pay these benefits.
Workers’ compensation covers all physical injuries including
neck, back and shoulder injuries, broken bones, damage to discs,
foot, leg, knee, and ankle injuries, amputations, brain
injuries, burns, hearing damage, and any other
occupational-related disease or death. In fact, even if your
condition was aggravated by working at your job you are entitled
to workers’ compensation benefits. These work-related benefits
are payable regardless of whether you are at fault or not. If
you are hurt on the job call ROSSETTI & DEVOTO, P.C. to learn

recover damages for your injuries and losses.
