The main difference is that in a workers compensation case, the person filing is not entitled to benefits for pain and suffering, however any personal injury lawsuit they are entitled to recover all damages if an award is made. Moreover, a construction worker cannot take legal action against their employer if they do receive workers compensation, although they may be able to do so against a third party such as an equipment supplier. Construction workers wanting to receive workers compensation are required to give their employer notice within 30 days of when the accident occurred, and then file a worker’s compensation claim within two years from the date of the accident.
