Workers’ Compensation Benefit Categories

When work causes or aggravates a medical condition, an injured employee may collect Workers’ Compensation benefits from one or more of the following categories:

Temporary Disability refers to payments made to you while you are unable to work. The maximum amount of the payments, determined by New Jersey statute, depends on your wages, and, if you are a member of a union, the terms of your collective bargaining agreement.

Medical Treatment includes all medical charges necessary to treat your injury or illness, such as doctor’s bills, hospital bills, diagnostic testing, medication, braces, physical therapy and other expenses that may fairly be termed a “medical” charge.

Permanent Partial Disability refers to payment for loss of physical function that might affect you at work or in non-work activities. Anyone who suffers an injury that is considered more than a “minor” strain may be eligible for this benefit, the amount of which is based on the body part that was injured, the seriousness of the injury, and the effect that the injury has had on your working ability and/or social activities.
