Injured in the job

So about halfway through my shift Friday felt a tug in the groin. Didn’t think anything about it. An hour later I sneeze and I feel a super sharp pain. Yup. Hernia.

Confirmed it with family doctor today.

The thing is I am a temp and I have no idea how to proceed. Is this a workman’s comp thing? I’m looking at a month of recovery after who knows how long waiting for the surgery.

Appreciate any advice!!!!
