California Workers Compensation Laws
Workers compensation is a set of benefits designed to provide injured workers with medical treatment needed to recover from a work-related injury or illness, replace the wages you lose while you are recovering, and help you return to work.
While not all claims qualify for workers compensation benefits, under California workers compensation laws:
Medical care must be paid for by your employer if you get hurt on the job — whether or not you miss time from work
You could receive benefits even if you are a temporary or part-time worker
You don't have to be a legal resident of the United States to receive most workers' compensation benefits
It's illegal for your employer to punish or fire you for filing a workers compensation claim

Top 5 Causes of Work Injuries
Riverside's top industries include manufacturing, retail, education and agriculture, and the city is adjacent to one of the major rail-freight centers in the state. While some jobs are more dangerous than others, it's possible to get hurt at any job.
Nationwide, the top five causes of work injuries are:
Overexertion
Falling from an elevated level
Reaction injuries from a slip or trip
Getting hit by falling objects
Work accidents can result in a number of injuries, ranging from mild to severe. Not all work injuries cause external physical damage, though. Some workers develop serious health conditions, such as Mesothelioma cancer, from being exposed to toxic chemicals and materials, or heart disease and hypertension as a result of work-related stress.
Our Riverside workers comp lawyers have helped injured workers with all types of injuries including, but not limited to:
Head and neck injuries
Repetitive stress injuries
Broken arms and legs
Extensive burns
Back and spine injuries
Workers compensation covers a variety of work-related injuries and causes, many of which are not listed here. Be sure to talk to a Riverside workers comp lawyer to get a full understanding how the law applies to your situation.
