Public safety employees, from police officers to firefighters to correction officers to probation officers, have difficult, dangerous jobs. Many are injured at some point during their careers and are thus entitled to workers’ compensation benefits.
Sadly, California’s workers’ compensation system can often seem impenetrable, and many hardworking public safety employees may sometimes have tremendous difficulty accessing the benefits they deserve.

Moreover, the emotional and financial toll on injured workers and their families can exacerbate stress, underscoring the importance of receiving timely and appropriate compensation.

Obtaining Compensation Through a Workers’ Compensation Claim as a Public Safety Employee in California
The extent of the compensation you can procure through a California workers’ compensation claim will depend on the severity of your injuries and your specific job. Under California Labor Code §4850, an injured worker can receive up to 104 weeks of aggregate disability payments within a five-year period of their injury. These aggregate payments include the one-year full salary (plus benefits) offered to police officers.
An injured public safety employee can get up to one year of their full salary (plus benefits) for each condition that temporarily prevents them from working, which is more than what is typically offered by temporary disability benefits. A public safety employee may be entitled to permanent disability compensation if they suffer residual impacts that are presumed to be permanent or are otherwise permanently impaired.
The medical evidence provided by your doctor and any other examining physicians will determine whether your condition is considered “permanent,” and a schedule used by the state will establish the monetary value of any settlement. Some public safety employees may even be able to get disability retirement benefits if they are part of the California Public Employees Retirement System (CalPERS).
