Any injury or illness that occurs due to employment is considered a workers' compensation injury. Under workers' compensation law, you will receive help if you are injured no matter who was at fault. Some types of workers' compensation injuries are: broken/fractured bones, back problems/pain, knee problems/injuries, grip loss, heart attacks, hypertension, wrist injuries (carpal tunnel syndrome), burns, shoulder pain, neck pain, headaches, etc. You may be entitled to benefits even if you are still working.
