Workers’ Compensation in Fox Lake, Illinois

Workers’ Compensation in Fox Lake, Illinois


If you have suffered a personal injury while on the job, you need to be aware of the Illinois Workers’ Compensation Act and what it means for your future. Most people don’t know that even if their personal injury happened outside of Illinois, you are likely still entitled to workers’ compensation as long as you were hired in Illinois and your injuries directly resulted from performing your job.

With a few caveats, the vast majority of diseases and injuries are eligible for compensation. Furthermore, the Act makes it unlawful for employers to pressure injured employees or to put them under duress by threatening to fire them. It is unlawful for an employer to fire you if you file a claim. In addition, you should not file for unemployment because doing so states that you have the ability to work.
