That can include medical care, temporary disability payments, permanent disability benefits, and other support depending on your case. California employers generally must carry workers\u2019 compensation insurance even if they have only one employee, and the system is designed to cover work-related injuries and illnesses.<\/p>\n<p>At <a href=\"https:\/\/cwilc.com\/\">California Work Injury Law Center<\/a>, we help injured workers in Newport Beach protect their rights when a claim is delayed, disputed, or denied.

California Work Injury Law Center focuses on helping injured workers, not employers or carriers. Rae Sadeghian-Levin brings a valuable perspective to these cases because she previously worked on the defense side.

In exchange, workers\u2019 compensation is usually the main remedy against the employer for the injury, rather than a traditional lawsuit for pain and suffering. California\u2019s Division of Workers\u2019 Compensation explains that employers must provide coverage and that the system includes medical care, disability benefits, supplemental job displacement benefits, and death benefits.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4cb10a9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"4cb10a9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-small\">What To Do After a Workplace Injury<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a406084 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a406084\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are hurt at work in Newport Beach, the steps you take early can affect the entire claim.

In reality, workers\u2019 compensation protections in California often extend beyond just full-time employees.
