Getting Workers’ Compensation For COVID-19
Did you know that COVID-19 can be considered an occupational disease? Frontline workers and first responders, as well as other workers who contracted COVID-19 at work, can seek compensation if they are suffering from long-term COVID-19 complications.
While it is true that frontline workers and first responders were at great risk for getting COVID-19 on the job, just about anyone can contract COVID-19 at work. At the Hinden & Breslavsky, we represent workers of all types throughout California. If you got COVID-19 from work and are suffering from long-term health issues, you could be entitled to workers’ compensation benefits and should contact us to discuss your options. Your consultation is free.
