What is Workers’ Compensation?

When an employee is injured or becomes ill from work, workers' compensation is insurance that will provide for medical care. You should never be asked to pay; your employer will cover the cost. If you have been injured at work, this insurance should cover the cost of treatment and possibly lost wages while you heal. Contact us to learn more.

  • Overexertion Injuries
