Fighting for the rights of injured workers in New York is one of the primary goals of the team here at Napoli Shkolnik PLLC. We handle workers\u2019 compensation claims, hearings and appeals for workers who have been injured on the job in workplace accidents or who have been diagnosed with occupational diseases. With more than 150 years of experience and a considerable amount of manpower and resources to handle these claims, we seek maximum compensation for every client. One of the important parts of this is accurately determining and proving a client\u2019s disability.<\/p>\n
Under the New York State Workers\u2019 Compensation system, cash benefits\u00a0are available to injured workers depending on the extent and duration of their disabilities. Though medical care is provided for all work injuries regardless of the amount of time missed from work, cash benefits are only paid if a worker is unable to work for at least seven days. A worker may be entitled to up to two-thirds of his or her average weekly wage, up to a maximum of $792.07 (as of June 30, 2013). The following formula is used to calculate cash benefits:<\/p>\n
2\/3 weekly wage x % of disability = weekly cash benefit<\/p>\n
The classification of a worker\u2019s disability will influence the amount of his or her weekly cash benefit and for how long he or she may be able to receive such benefits.<\/p>\n

Es gibt vier prim\u00e4re Behinderungsklassifikationen, die in der Reihenfolge von der schwersten zur am wenigsten schwerwiegenden aufgef\u00fchrt sind:<\/p>\n
Dauerhafte vollst\u00e4ndige Behinderung<\/strong> Dauerhafte Teilinvalidit\u00e4t<\/strong> Vor\u00fcbergehende vollst\u00e4ndige Behinderung<\/strong> Vor\u00fcbergehende teilweise Behinderung<\/strong> If a worker sustains serious and permanent disfigurement to the face, head or neck, that worker may be entitled to additional compensation. or cash benefits, of up to $20,000.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n From our national headquarters in the Empire State Building and additional offices located throughout the state, the team at our firm is ready to help injured New Yorkers seek the compensation they need through their workers\u2019 compensation claims.

\nDer Arbeitnehmer ist nicht in der Lage, auf unbestimmte Zeit zur Arbeit zur\u00fcckzukehren; seine F\u00e4higkeit, einer Erwerbst\u00e4tigkeit nachzugehen, geht dauerhaft verloren. Es gibt keine Begrenzung f\u00fcr den Zeitraum, in dem ein Arbeitnehmer Arbeitnehmerentsch\u00e4digung erhalten kann.<\/p>\n
\nEin Teil der Lohnf\u00e4higkeit eines Arbeitnehmers ist dauerhaft verloren gegangen. Beispielsweise kann der Mitarbeiter bei einem Arbeitsunfall eine Hand verloren haben oder einen dauerhaften Sehverlust erlitten haben. Geldleistungen sind nur verf\u00fcgbar, wenn der Arbeitnehmer Zeit von der Arbeit vers\u00e4umt hat, obwohl der Arbeitnehmer m\u00f6glicherweise Anspruch auf eine zus\u00e4tzliche Pr\u00e4mie f\u00fcr Nutzungsausfall aufgrund einer dauerhaften Teilinvalidit\u00e4t hat. Abh\u00e4ngig vom verletzten K\u00f6rperteil kann der Arbeitnehmer Anspruch auf eine bestimmte Anzahl von Wochen zus\u00e4tzlicher Geldleistungen haben.<\/p>\n
\nDer Arbeitnehmer ist vor\u00fcbergehend vollst\u00e4ndig arbeitsunf\u00e4hig. Der Arbeitnehmer h\u00e4tte Anspruch auf Leistungen f\u00fcr die Zeit, in der er oder sie arbeitsunf\u00e4hig ist.<\/p>\n
\nThe employee\u2019s ability to earn wages is temporarily and partially affected. Benefits will vary depending on the extent of disability and how long the worker is partially disabled.<\/p>\nWorkers' Compensation Help in New York<\/h3>\n
