If a New Jersey employee
sustains an injury or illness while
at work, they may be eligible to receive
New Jersey worker’s compensation.
There are two factors that the New
Jersey employee must show to qualify
for New Jersey worker’s compensation.
The first factor that must be established
is if the incident occurred the way
the New Jersey employee claimed, including
the location, time, and manner. Secondly,
it must be shown that a medical condition
has resulted as a direct result of
the New Jersey accident, based on
statements from a qualified physician.
There are many laws
and procedures present that factor
into whether or not a New Jersey employee
receives worker’s compensation
for the pain and suffering they endured
as a result of the incident, as well
as how much they receive. Blume Goldfaden

After a New Jersey
employee becomes injured at work the
injury should be immediately reported
to the supervisor and a written report
should be completed. In the case of
traumatic New Jersey injury, medical
treatment that is needed should be
provided from an authorization that
the supervisor fills out for to visit
any physician of the employee’s
choice. The supervisor should be given
medical evidence of any disability
within ten calendar days of claiming
continuation of pay when a traumatic
injury is involved.
New Jersey
worker’s compensation laws were
designed to ensure that the New Jersey
employees injured on the job are given
monetary awards. The idea behind New
Jersey worker’s compensation
laws are to eliminate the need for
legal action, but in many instances
worker’s are not always adequately
compensated for their pain and suffering,
in addition to loss of compensation
because of the injury or disability.
Sometimes an injury can be so severe
that the New Jersey worker’s
compensation laws do not adequately
cover all the damages.
