Here's how it benefits workers: 1. Financial Compensation for Injuries COIDA provides compensation for medical expenses, loss of income, and rehabilitation for workers injured on the job. Whether the injury is temporary or permanent, workers receive necessary support without needing to prove employer negligence. 2. Medical Treatment and Rehabilitation The act covers medical expenses, including surgeries, hospital stays, and rehabilitation, ensuring that workers receive the care they need to recover. This coverage includes long-term care if required for severe injuries or occupational diseases. 3. Protection Against Disability and Death If a worker is permanently disabled or dies due to a workplace injury, COIDA compensates the worker or their dependents. This includes monthly payments for permanent disabilities or a lump sum for partial disabilities. Dependents also receive compensation in the unfortunate event of the worker’s death. 4. Peace of Mind and Legal Protection COIDA ensures that workers cannot sue their employers for compensation, creating a no-fault system. This allows employees to focus on recovery without worrying about complex legal processes. 5.
