Maybe I missed something, but the article didn't say he was permamnently disabled, it said he was seriously injured. From the article:
...for the teen, who was partially paralyzed while working on a home...

who was partially paralyzed while working on a home
Well, picking nits, partially paralyzed doesn't mean he can no longer work; he was a teen who probably shouldn't have been on the job site in the first place; and he's an illegal.
Partial paralysis could mean that he has lost full use of his hand or his foot. I suppose that does entitle him to something - IMO, job training and a free ticket home.
As for the employer, he deserves to pay whatever it costs because "he was a teen who probably shouldn't have been on the job site in the first place; and he's an illegal."
