Understanding Florida
Workers’ Compensation
Workers’ compensation exists to protect employees who suffer work-related injuries or illnesses. In Fort Lauderdale, benefits may include:
- Medical treatment and rehabilitation costs
- Wage replacement for temporary or permanent disability
- Disability benefits if you cannot return to your prior work
- Vocational rehabilitation for retraining or new employment opportunities
Although the system is designed to support workers, many find themselves battling insurers instead of focusing on recovery.
