Whether you're covered under workers' compensation for injuries sustained during lunch depends on the circumstances. Generally, injuries that occur during your break are not covered, as they take place outside the scope of work duties. However, if you are injured while performing a work-related task or on employer property, you may be eligible for coverage. Always check your specific state's workers' compensation laws and your employer's policies for clarity.
Firemen sleep at their work place so yes it is legal. You are covered by workmens comp when you are on the job or on the jobsite.

Answer is No workmens comp is only applicable to injuries sustained while on the job, damages to a vehicle are not part of workmens comp.

No they can't, if it has only to do with being on WC.
A insurance provided by employers for injured employees. There is a provision in Texas law whereby an employer may elect not to purchase workmens' comp insurance. About 33% of Texas employers do not have WC insurance.
It depends on the policy of your employer...I believe.
