Workers' Compensation and Social Security

If you are injured on the job, you may be entitled to workers' compensation benefits. Florida Statute 440 outlines your rights and responsibilities under the workers' compensation system. The accident must be reported, and medical treatment provided from an authorized workers compensation provider. Discuss your accident and injury with your employer as soon as it happens. If medical treatment is not provided or wage benefits not paid, you may seek legal counsel.

Things are hard for women with no economic or political power. The consequences to the harassers must be swift and clear. We must treat sexual harassment seriously because it is wrong for anyone to endure such oppressive treatment.
