The Importance of Understanding Iowa’s Injured Workers’ Bill of Rights

If you've suffered a work-related injury or occupational disease, it is fundamental to your recovery that you understand how Iowa's Injured Workers' Bill of Rights affects you, your employer, and your claim. A Des Moines Workers' Compensation lawyer will explain in detail how the bill of rights pertains to the specifics of your case, and how that will affect your claim. 

Iowa's Injured Workers' Bill of Rights stipulates certain inalienable rights that you are entitled to in the event that you are injured while on the job or as a result of job-related activities.

Some of those rights include: 
 

  • the ability to seek treatment from the medical provider you choose;
  • coverage for medical care related to any work injury or occupational disease;
  • the right to refuse care or medical procedures, such as surgery; and
  • compensation while you are in recovery and unable to work 

There are strict formulas that govern how much you are able to receive in weekly benefits, and in many cases, employers violate those regulations by underpaying disabled, injured, or recovering employees. For relentless, compassionate representation, contact a Des Moines Workers' Compensation lawyer who will stand up for your rights.
