Workers' Compensation

In broad terms, workers’ compensation exists to provide benefits to employees or staff who are injured or die on the job as a result of work-related injuries.

Although it is of course unfortunate for such events to occur, they do happen and the financial remedy provided by workers' compensation can be immensely helpful to an employee as well as his or her family.

The majority of workers’ compensation costs for employers are comprised of insurance premiums and/or retained losses. Programs, if not properly managed, also can be costly to organizations in relation to workforce productivity and the time and resources required to manage claims.

In the US, workers’ compensation rules and regulations are established on a state-by-state basis and can vary considerably. These complexities can make it difficult for companies to navigate this environment and address emerging trends and legislative changes.
