When a person is injured on the job while at work, their entitled to work is compensation benefits, which covers your lost wages and your medical benefits. What it doesn't compensate you for is pain and suffering. In order to recover pain and suffering, you need what's called a third-party action where the attorney tries to find another party, whether the owner of a building or a general contractor or someone else who has insurance that can compensate you for your injury in addition to the worker's compensation that you might be receiving.
