death benefit

“When a firefighter dies from occupational cancer, we owe it to them to ensure their families get the line-of-duty death benefits they are owed.”

The railroad company he worked for gave Gianetsas, who could barely speak English at the time, a death benefit worth $1,500.

Its total possible death benefits and its weekly maximum benefits were lower than those in all but a few states.

Kabba considered ride-share driving his full-time job, but his family wasn’t eligible for death benefits because he wasn’t completing a ride for a customer when he was fatally shot.

The city had no intention to pay death benefits, offering Robert Walker’s widow only $500 for funeral expenses, “if you need it,” as the official letter put it.
