How Workers’ Comp Works

Employers with one or more employees are required to have workers’ compensation insurance in place. This insurance is designed to provide coverage for any injuries or illnesses that occur in the workplace. The process for seeking compensation is overseen by the Workers’ Compensation Commission. While the system aims to reduce lawsuits against employers, it can be intricate, with strict time constraints and procedural hurdles that may pose challenges for individuals navigating it independently.

Filing for workers’ compensation can be a confusing process. With our team on your side, you can focus on resting and recovery and leave the legal headaches to us.
