Permanent disability

Read a random definition: single condition

A quick definition of Permanent disability:

Permanent disability means that someone has a lasting physical or mental problem that makes it hard for them to do things they used to do. If the disability happened because of work, the person might get money to help them because they can't work as well as they used to. For example, if someone who works on a boat gets hurt and can't work anymore, they might get two-thirds of the money they used to make. Different states have different rules for how much money someone with a permanent disability can get.

A more thorough explanation:

Permanent disability refers to a long-term physical or mental impairment that reduces a person's ability to perform their regular work or activities. This condition is usually caused by an accident or serious illness that affects the person's ability to function normally.

If the injury occurred while the person was working, they may be entitled to compensation to help them cope with their inability to work. For example, if a person working in the maritime industry becomes permanently disabled, they may receive two-thirds of their previous wage as compensation, according to 33 U.S.C. § 908.

Similarly, state workers' compensation laws also provide benefits for permanent disabilities. For instance, Wisconsin Stats. § 102.52 outlines a compensation schedule for permanent disabilities affecting certain body parts.

These examples illustrate how permanent disability can impact a person's ability to work and earn a living. Compensation laws aim to provide financial support to those who are unable to work due to a permanent disability.
