WORKERS’ COMPENSATION

Workers’ compensation is a government-mandated benefit for employees who incur a work-related injury or illness.

Under Delaware law you are entitled to medical benefits and payments for lost wages equal to two thirds of your average weekly wage [subject to a maximum] at the time of the injury while you are unable to work.

When an employee sustains a work-related injury or illness, the employee is required to submit a Injury/Illness Report, in conjunction with the supervisor immediately (as soon as safe).
