If you have a permanent injury, you may be able to get a "schedule award" which is based on a formula depending Worker's comp covers medical expenses and time out of work. You cannot sue your employer for negligence. on the extent of your disability.

You can't sue your company. Your exclusive remedy is worker's compensation. File a claim. Good luck.
