Workers' Compensation — Am I Eligible?
In Nebraska, the Workers Compensation Act applies to almost all workers in the state. The Act applies to every employer with one or more employees in the regular trade of the employer (with a few exceptions). This covers many drywall workers whose jobs include mudding, hanging sheetrock, finishing, metal and wood framing, as well as custom home remodeling.
To find out if you are eligible for temporary total disability benefits, permanent partial disability benefits, medical benefits or vocational rehabilitation benefits or another type of support, it is best to talk to a lawyer. Everyone's situation is unique; a lawyer can help you make the right decisions about the workers' compensation benefits you are eligible to receive.
