Workman's Compensation Insurance is governed by state laws. Each state has it's own procedures for applying and being qualified for a compensatory or award. The person involved can contact the state Labor and Relations Board for information on the filing of WCI claims.

If you are hurt at work in California, the process starts by reporting the injury to your employer and asking for medical treatment if needed. They should give you a claim form which they are supposed to forward to their workers compensation carrier.

Bad answer. We do not rely on employers to start the WC process. When a worker goes to a doctor for treatment of what he/she says is a work injury, the DOCTOR files it as workers comp, and the WC agency notifies the employer. WC benefits are due even if the employer never knew about the injury.

Massachusetts Answer #2 You better check with workman's comp.
