workers' compensation claims

Workers' compensation claims are formal requests made by employees who suffer work-related injuries or illnesses. When an employee gets hurt or becomes sick due to their job, they can file a claim to receive medical benefits and wage replacement, helping them recover without facing financial hardship. These claims are usually handled through the employer’s insurance system, which covers necessary medical treatments and part of the lost income. Filing a claim involves reporting the incident promptly and providing relevant details. The goal is to support employees in recovery while ensuring workplaces maintain safety standards.
