Workers' compensation insurance is a program established by State law. Workers’ compensation is a no-fault system under which injured employees receive benefits in connection with work-related injuries or occupational illness.

Most people who are injured at work, or while performing work duties, turn to the workers compensation system out of financial necessity. The system is provides injured workers with financial support, mainly lost and recovered wages. If you’ve been injured, and are unable to work, compensation is usually available. Unfortunately, the worker’s compensation system is complicated, and law does not require your employer keep your job available until you return.
