An employee who suffered work-related injuries was
financially protected through payments that covered
medical and
rehabilitation expenses and fully matched his or her
wages. If
injuries resulted in permanent disability, the worker
could
receive payments amounting to 85 percent of his or her
wages for
total disability. Survivors were eligible for pensions, as
well
as a sizable funeral grant. This compulsory program was
entirely
funded by the employer.
