Workers Compensation Claims

Workers compensation provides protection to workers in the event of a work related injury or disease.

Through the workers compensation system, injured workers may have an entitlement to:

• weekly payments
• lump sums for permanent impairment (and pain and suffering where applicable)
• payment of medical bills
• provision of legal assistance to pursue a claim

When a worker is injured at work, the employer, injured worker, insurer and treatment provider have responsibilities to ensure that the injured worker is provided with benefits and assistance to recover and return to work.
