You May Be Entitled to Financial Benefits From Workers’ Comp

Under New Jersey’s workers’ compensation system, an employee who sustains a work injury or occupational illness can receive certain benefits paid by their employer or their employers’ workers’ compensation insurer. These workers’ comp benefits may include:

• Medical benefits, which pay for all reasonable and necessary treatment and rehabilitation of a work injury or occupational illness
• Temporary disability benefits, which provide partial wage replacement for an injured or ill employee who cannot work or who must work in modified duty and earns less income as a result
• Permanent partial disability benefits, which provides weekly payments to an employee who suffers permanent disability to some part of their body but who can still work in gainful employment
• Permanent total disability benefits, which continue temporary disability benefits after their expiration for as long as a worker remains totally disabled from doing any kind of work
• Death benefits, which include temporary regular payments and reimbursement of funeral and burial expenses for the surviving family of a worker killed by a work injury or occupational illness
