Workers compensation insurance is mandatory in all states nationwide. You may have heard it called ‘workers comp’ for short. It’s insurance that will provide for medical care for an employee should they get hurt on the job. This also protects the employer from being sued by the employee.
It’s not limited to just injuries sustained while on the work premises. It may cover employees who are en route to another destination, but on company business and meet with an accident. It can also cover things like illnesses. And most states require a company to have it by law.
Time lost on the job can be devastating for a family. Through this insurance, the injured party and their family can be compensated and sustain their current lifestyle. This insurance doesn’t consider blame, or who is at fault for the injury, but deals with getting treatment and protecting liabilities.
