injured workers

Injured workers refer to individuals who sustain injuries while performing their job duties. These injuries can be physical, such as fractures or strains, or psychological, such as stress-related ailments. In many countries, injured workers are entitled to compensation and medical care through workers' compensation programs. These programs are designed to help cover medical expenses, lost wages, and rehabilitation costs, allowing workers to recover and return to their jobs. Additionally, they may provide support for long-term disabilities or retraining for different careers if the worker cannot return to their previous role.
