Yes - even in the absence of a workers comp policy, the employer is responsible for a work related injury
The employees and service users
No, "work-related" is hyphenated when used as an adjective before a noun, but not when used after the noun. For example: "He experienced work-related stress at his job" versus "The stress he experienced at work was related to his workload."
If you had a job that nobody else was familiar with then it is reasonable that your employer has to contact you now and again about work related matters.
Eventually an employer would have to. because unless there is insurance that protects the employees wages, the employer can not be held responsible for the employees ability to work. and if the employee does not work then he does not earn a wage.
The employer would be responsible especially if you were driving for work purposes.
Very doubtful.
Texas workman's compensation does not cover work related stress. Usually there has to be sufficient medical evidence relate to the claim.
If you were injured and broke your tooth due to a work-related accident, your employer would be responsible for covering the costs incurred for having your tooth repaired. They would have to file a claim with their Workers Comp carrier.
