How does a workers’ comp claim affect future employment?
A workers’ compensation injury can affect future employment if the injury itself causes an inability of the injured worker to perform his usual and customary job activities in his or her chosen profession. An injured worker, who has obtained permanent work restrictions may be disabled from returning to their prior occupation. If an injured worker cannot return to his prior occupation, he or she may be entitled to vocational rehabilitation or educational retraining for a new profession or new career.
