5 Things To Know About Workers Compensation
2
Everyday we get up and go to work. Some get up
more than once because they have multiple jobs.
People get up for work because they want to feed
their families. People get up for work because
they want to make sure that their children have a
better life than they had growing up. Some get up
for work because they have their eye on a new car
or planned vacation. Whatever reason you get up
in the morning for work, we can all agree that
either our life or the life of our dependents
rely on us getting up and going. So what happens
if you get injured at work? Workers Compensation
is insurance created to protect workers from
workplace injury and illness. However, any time
the word insurance is in a sentence you know it
is never easy.

sort through the confusion of workers
compensation insurance. Over the 40 years they

compensation tips to remember if you or someone
you love gets injured on the job
Many people dont know that if you are injured at
work then you can file a workers compensation
claim. Injury can happen because of slip and
falls, falling objects, crushed between objects,
or inhaling toxic fumes. In a no-fault state
meaning that when you file you do not have to
prove negligence for a workers compensation
claim.
1.
Workers compensation claims replace the ability
for employees to sue their workplace. You can sue
the workplace if you believe the employer was
reckless or intentional toward your injury.

If you do file and the claim is accepted, you can
expect to be covered for lost wages, medical
bills, eligibility for short term or long term
disability, and travel associated with the
medical bills. Even if your claim is denied there
are ways to appeal in order to get your claim
accepted, but it takes skilled representation to
do that for you.
3.
In California, it is mandatory for all business
to have workers compensation insurance. However,
there are some caveats to the rules, but your
employer should always give you options if you
are injured on the job.
4.

chances of approval and with our legal counsel,
we can ensure that every step you take will be of

The only thing you have to do is go the doctors
and follow their lead. Unfortunately, insurance
companies are not willing to provide all that
they can because they are a business looking out
for their bottom line. If you or someone you love
was injured at work then you deserve to get the
compensation that you deserve.
