Know Your Rights
Every state in the U.S. has different regulations
concerning the workers compensation laws. In
California, every employee who is injured while
performing work duties is entitled to financial
compensation, which will help the injured
employee with all the expenses and financially
support them until they are able to return to
work. As a result, the employee cannot sue the
employer.

There are a number of legal rights that are
common in most states

• You have the right to file a claim if you got
  injured while performing your regular work duties
• You have the right to file a claim even if you
  got injured outside of your working premises
• You have the right to see a doctor and to pursue
  medical treatment
• You have the right to return to work if you got
  released by your physician
• You are eligible to receive disability benefits
  if you are unable to return to work (temporary or
  permanently) because of your injury or illness

Third-Party Claims
In some cases, you may also be eligible to file a
third-party claim against another party which
contributed to your injuries. In some cases, it
will be your coworker whose negligence caused
your injuries. In other cases, it will be a
designer or manufacturer of a defective piece of
equipment, or a delivery truck driver.
Note that if you got injured as a result of a
third party while performing your job, you have
the right to bring a claim against that person or
entity. These claims are not filed together with
the workers compensation claim instead, they
take the form of civil lawsuits and are filed in
state or federal courts.
