orkers’ Comp For Public Employees
Like employees of private companies, public employees who are injured on the job are entitled to benefits under Arizona’s workers’ compensation laws. Whether you are a teacher, office worker, firefighter or another kind of state or local employee, you are entitled to coverage for medical expenses and payments to replace lost income for temporary or lasting disabilities from your injuries. If you have been hurt on the job, the experienced attorneys at Jerome Gibson, P.C., will provide you with experienced guidance through the workers’ compensation process.

Because the job duties of public employees vary widely, so do the injuries they receive.

We have also helped employees obtain workers’ compensation benefits for back injuries, falls from heights, head trauma and many other types of injuries.
Regardless of the type of injury you receive, you should report the incident to your supervisor immediately, making clear that you have been injured. You should also seek medical attention and tell your care provider that you have been injured in a work accident.
