What is Disablement Benefit?

Leaflet Sections

If you are injured at work or contract a prescribed occupational disease (a work-related illness that qualifies you for a social welfare payment), you may be entitled to benefits under the Occupational Injuries Scheme. These benefits include Disablement Benefit, which is divided into a single lump sum or a regular pension depending on the injury or effect of the disease.
