Florida Workers’ Compensation Law is a legal system designed to provide medical benefits and wage replacement to employees who are injured or become ill arising out of the course and scope of their job. Florida Statutes, Chapter 440 defines the benefits and procedures, rights and responsibilities. It is considered the Employee’s “exclusive remedy” against the employer for injuries at work, meaning the injured worker cannot sue the Employer in the personal injury system in Florida, but can only receive the worker’s compensation benefits (with some very limited exceptions).
