- Mental Disability Groups
Mental disorders are grouped into 3 primary groups based on their etiology, or origin. Each are outlined below:
Physical-Mental Disabilty Claims
These occur when an employee develops a mental disorder, such as depression, as a result of a work related physical injury. An example would be if someone became depressed after sustaining a debilitating back injury at work.
Mental-Physical Disability Claims
These injuries arise when a mental stimulus at work manifests itself as a physical injury. An example would be a worker suffering a heart attack during a stressful work related situation i.e. being robbed at gunpoint while working at a store.
Mental Mental Disability Claims
These cases involve scenarios where a mental stimulus in the workplace causes a mental injury. An example would be the inability to return to work after a traumatic event due to Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome (PTSS)
