On the Job injuries regardless of the industry or the type of job, are injuries that occur while a worker is performing his or her job activities.
A work injury may be the result of a single incident such as dropping an object on your foot, or cutting your finger on a machine. It may be the result of one accident, or it could be a repetitive motion injury, such as working on an assembly line.
The injured worker is entitled to medical care and treatment under California law. The injured worker will also be entitled to .34 cents per mile for travel to and from doctor visits and treatment.
Depending on the nature and extent of the injury, the worker will be entitled to temporary disability and/or permanent disability. The extent of your compensation will depend on the nature of your job and the extent of your disability.
