Whether hurt at work or if your health is disabling there may come a point when you apply for Social Security disability. Even if the system is slow it still is an important safety net for those truly unable to sustain work. The listings are severe health problems that have made the list so that if you meet a listing it can mean you are truly disabled enough to deserve disability benefits. However this still requires that you meet other legal requirements but it is a big step to obtaining benefits. For example if you cannot ambulate effectively it may meet one of the listings. The Social Security Administration has very specific details on the listings and I have provided a link to them below.
