If you have been injured on the job, you may be eligible for benefits designed to cover your medical expenses and other costs. Employers in California are required by workers’ compensation law to provide workers’ compensation insurance coverage to protect their employees.
A shoulder tear is an injury to the soft tissues that provide mobility and stability to the joint. Tendons, muscles, or the labrum, a rim of fibrous tissue that lines the glenoid, can sustain a tear. A tear can partially or entirely sever a tendon, muscle, or labrum. Ruptures of the rotator cuff are among the most prevalent types of shoulder injuries. Most rotator cuff tears occur in individuals who repeatedly perform overhead movements.
If you have been injured while working, you may be able to recover benefits that are designed to cover your medical costs and associated expenses.
