what is workers’ compensation?
a system that compensates employees for job - related injuries and illnesses
a type of life insurance for workers
a retirement plan for workers
a program that provides free medical care to workers

Explanation:

Workers' compensation is a specific program designed to provide benefits to employees who suffer injuries or illnesses directly related to their job duties, which matches the first option. The other options are incorrect: it is not life insurance, a retirement plan, nor does it universally provide free medical care (it covers job-related medical costs as part of compensation, not all general medical care for workers).

Answer:

A system that compensates employees for job-related injuries and illnesses
