Workers compensation, or “workman’s comp” as it’s also known, is insurance provided by your employer, which ensures – by law – that you get paid a portion of your wages that you would otherwise lose to injury or illness contracted on the job. Also, workers compensation laws ensure that your medical bills will be paid.
You as an employer are required by law to have worker’s comp insurance for your employees and if a claim is filed you will need to provide the forms to file the claim.
