Under the Georgia State Board of Workers’ Compensation, all employers with three or more employees are required to have worker’s compensation insurance. Full-time, part-time, seasonal, under 18 years old; it does not matter. In the Georgia State Board of Workers’ Compensation employee handbook, it lists the benefits that an injured worker is entitled to.

• Medical benefits - A worker who is injured on the job is entitled to all necessary and reasonable medical benefits, including doctors’ visits, hospital visits, surgeries, rehabilitation, medications, and more. You do not have the right to visit your own physician but instead must select from a list of physicians provided by the workers’ compensation insurance provider.
• Income benefits - In the event that your injury forces you to miss work, you may be eligible to recover income benefits. Income benefits are available to those workers who miss seven or more days of work due to a workplace accident. In the event that your time missed from work extends to more than 21 days, then you will also receive pay for the first seven days of missed work. If your injury is catastrophic, you are eligible to receive benefits for the entire time that you are unable to return to work; if your injury is non-catastrophic, wage benefits are paid up to 400 weeks.
• Death benefits - In some cases, a workplace injury can result in death. If this is the case, your dependents are eligible to receive death benefits, including benefits for burial and funeral expenses and lost wages.
