You are entitled to certain benefits including your medical bills paid, temporary total disability amounting to two-thirds of your average weekly pay for the time you are off work or on light duty under a doctor's order, and, in most cases, a lump sum of money to compensate you for your injuries. If you are hurt, no matter how minor the injury may seem, you should immediately contact your supervisor and report the accident.
