New York State Industrial Commission

The New York State Industrial Commission was a government agency responsible for overseeing workers' compensation, ensuring injured workers received appropriate benefits and medical care. It also regulated workplace safety and reviewed claims related to job-related injuries. The commission aimed to balance the interests of workers and employers, providing a fair system for resolving disputes and promoting safe working conditions. Over time, its functions have been integrated into the New York State Workers' Compensation Board, which now manages these responsibilities.
