Fact-Checked

When exposure on the job results in the development of a chronic ailment that prevents a person from working, that employee may be suffering from an occupational disease. Occupational diseases are covered by workers’ compensation benefits in both Illinois and Missouri. Insurance carriers may try to claim that the job could not have caused the occupational disease, but our workers’ compensation attorneys have the experience to prove how the disease was really contracted.
