When you file for workers' compensation benefits in the state of Florida, depending on your injuries, you may be entitled to recover the following:

Wrongful Death: If an employee lost their life due to a work accident, death benefits could be owed to the survivors in the form of funeral expenses, education coverage, and financial coverage.

Loss of Wages: In the state of Florida, there are three types of wage loss benefits available to you. Temporary total disability (TTD), in most cases, covers about 66% of your regular wages. Temporary partial disability (TPD) provides coverage if you are able to return to work but are unable to earn the same wages as before your injuries. TPD can pay you up to 80% of the difference between your wages before your injury vs. what you are able to earn now. Impairment benefits can pay for permanent disability that is a direct result of your work injury.

Medical: Your medical benefits may cover hospital stays, doctor's appointments, treatments, prescription drugs, physical therapy, or rehabilitation bills. In some cases, it may also cover travel expenses that are directly related to your injuries.
