In the long run, a stressful job can lead to just as many medical concerns as a dangerous job. Whether your high blood pressure led to a stroke or you have developed heart disease, you could be entitled to workers' compensation if your disability or condition is the result of workplace stress.
The biggest problem when it comes to linking heart disease and stroke issues to the workplace is the potential for a preexisting condition. But if you work under constant stress, whether you are a firefighter or a software engineer, it is possible to demonstrate the relationship between your job and your current medical condition.
