Occupational Illnesses & Healthcare Work

Health workers can suffer a number of workplace and work-related injuries depending on where they are employed. The most likely scenario for a health worker, though, is contracting an occupational illness or disease. In simple terms, an occupational illness is a sickness or health condition a worker contracts due to their employment. Needing to spend time near, around, or with ill patients is a job duty many health workers cannot avoid. If they get sick due to their duties, they are likely able to file for workers’ compensation benefits.

Your workers’ compensation benefits as a health worker should:

  • Pay for any medical costs related to your own treatment.

  • Provide some of your normal wages as you recover.

  • Help prove eligibility for Social Security Disability if the illness is chronic.

Other Injuries Suffered By Health Workers

As aforementioned, health workers can suffer numerous work-related injuries based on their specific occupation beyond just occupational illnesses. Many health workers are employed to assist people with physical disabilities or mental debilitations in their home and throughout their day-to-day lives. Busywork like hauling groceries or cleaning can end up causing serious back pain or another repetitive stress injury.

 

​​Remember: If you are an independently contracted healthcare worker, you may not have any workers’ compensation coverage. Our workers’ compensation attorneys can help you determine your coverage or eligibility.
