Question: How
do you apply for Death or Total Disability Benefits from the
State for a fire-fighter injured or killed in the line of duty?
Answer: You must file a claim with
the Arkansas State Claims Commission using the following form,
instructions, and checklist.
Question: Do I have to be unable to
perform any work
to qualify for Total Disability benefits from the State
if I am a fire-fighter injured in the line of duty?
Answer: No; the statute defines Total
Disability as unable to perform you prior job duties -
essentially unable to work as a fire-fighter. |
