Worker’s Compensation Benefit

technofied.i.ph

A worker’s compensation benefit is paid to an employee that has a job-related injury or illness. These benefits can be paid by state or federal worker’s compensation agencies, insurance companies or employers on behalf of the employees.

It is important to note that the disability payments from private sources – such as insurance benefits or private pension – do not affect one’s social security disability benefits. However, other public disability benefits such as worker’s compensation may reduce your social security benefits. The other public disability payments that affect your social security benefits are those paid by the state, federal, or local governments for disabling job-related medical conditions.
