Worker’s compensation laws are intended to protect employees who are injured in the work place. Fedora employees are entitled to two-thirds of their monthly  salaries when on disability, and even more if they are permanently injured. Employers must investigate individual cases to prevent fraud. In fact, worker’s compensation fraud costs insurance companies and the public 60 billion dollars every year. Because benefits such as medical coverage are often part of the compensation people receive, many people on disability have lite incentive to return to work. Some people opt to stay out of work at the expense of their employers or the taxpayers.
