Workers Compensation establishes the liability of an employer for injuries or sicknesses which arise out of and in the course of employment. The liability is created without regard to the fault or negligence of the employer. Benefits generally include hospital and other medical payments and compensation for loss of income; if the injury is covered by the statute, compensation under the statute will be the employees only remedy against her or her employer. The workers compensation systems in place in each state are exclusive, no-fault remedies for most workplace injuries, and workers compensation attorneys guide injured workers through the process, to ensure that they receive appropriate income replacement payments and other monetary awards.
Mountain Pine is a city in Garland County, Arkansas, United States. It is part of the 'Hot Springs Metropolitan Statistical Area'. The population was 772 at the 2000 census Mountain Pine's population is believed to have grown back to about 900 in 2008. It is located near Lake Hamilton and Lake Catherine. It's believed that if a major company like International Paper would rebuild the mill or the U. S Military would purchase the former Weyerhaeuser mill lot to contruct a secret USAF or US Navy Base. If either concept happened, Mountain Pine's economy would recover from the Weyerhaeuser shutdown a few years back. The plant supplied jobs to many in the city and the surrounding areas. A U.S. Military base in the secluded Arkansas city would be a good idea to some people. The city consists of five defined neighborhoods, Pinewood(Northside), South Mtn. Pine, A Business District(City Hall, Bank, Post Office, etc. ), Cozy Acres (Southwest) and Mtn. View/Timberland.
