Claiming Worker's Compensation for Injuries
During Commute

• Workers compensation claims are not limited to
  the accidents and injuries that occur within the
  company's walls.
• Accidents that occur anywhere on company property
  or while a person is performing job-related
  duties off of company grounds are covered by
  workers compensation insurance.

Errands and Special Missions

• When a person runs an errand or takes on a
  special mission, they are technically covered by
  the company's insurance no matter where they are.
  
• Any accident that occurs while an employee is
  working on company time is normally eligible.

4
Business Trips

• When a person goes on a business trip, and all of
  their expenses are covered by the company, it
  would stand to reason that any accident or injury
  that occurs would also be covered by their
  workman's compensation insurance.

5
Company Property

• Company property doesn't end once you exit the
  business doors. Any property that is owned and
  maintained by the company must be covered by its
  liability insurance.
• A workers compensation attorney will be able to
  determine where public property begins and
  company property ends.
