JONES ACT BENEFITS AND RIGHTS


If you are a seaman who becomes ill or injured, the Jones Act and general maritime law give you three (3) no-fault benefits: medical (called cure) benefits until at maximum medical improvement; a daily maintenance stipend until they return to work or are at maximum medical improvement; and payment of unearned wages through the end of the voyage.

You also have the right to sue for damages if you can show negligence or unseaworthiness of the vessel.

The degree of causation necessary to sustain a claim for damages due to negligence is slight or featherweight, which means there need be very little connection between the injury and the negligence on the part of your employer for you to be successful in claiming damages. Unseaworthiness of the vessel includes conditions, such as slippery decks and stairs, which must be the proximate cause of injury.
