Each state has its own WC laws, and each state is a little different. Basically the laws are that if you are injured in the course and scope of your work, Workers Compensation insurance will pay for your medical treatment costs (Doctor, drugs, transportation costs) If you are unable to work, after a waiting period (typically 7 days) Workers Comp will replace a PART of your wages you usually earned. It is not required that you file a lawsuit against anyone. You must report the injury to your supervisor at once, and file an Employers First Report of Injury. SOME occupational diseases are also covered by Workers Comp.
