Re: Can I claim?
Your employer may offer you a modified work based on the restrictions set by your doctors. If not, you are entitled to a permanent disability settlement based on the ratings of your permanent disability and future medicals. In addition based on the ratings of your permanent disability, you are entitled to vocational disability voucher to retrain in another type of work. So as you see you have various options.
