Work-related injuries or illnesses are not compensable under the Union City Temporary Disability Benefits Law. However, if you are claiming workers’ compensation benefits and the claim is contested by the Workers’ Compensation insurance carrier, temporary disability benefits may be paid pending resolution of a formal WC claim petition. A lien is filed by the Disability Insurance Service to protect its subrogation rights against any subsequent Workers’ Compensation award.
