If a student athlete is injured during a game should this be recorded as workmen's comp?
By definition, a student of any particular institution is not an employee of that institution.
Whereas a student may be employed by the school they attend, their duties as employee constitute those things for which they are somehow compensated by their employer; and, those requirements they must meet regarding their status as a student are non-compensated, tending only toward their coursework. The two stations are neither interchangeable nor synonymous.
That which applies to the protection of a student while on school property is different from that which covers the school's employees; and, anything not done by one of the institution's employees during the regular course of their job which culminated in a mishap would not be covered by workmen's compensation insurance. This means that all athletes, if they wish to be covered by workmen's compensation insurance, need to get a job--- playing ball at school won't qualify.

Does every company have to have workman's comp coverage for its employees?
If state law requires it. Some states do not have laws requiring businesses to have such coverage. Other states have limitations such as the number of employees, type of work, etc.
Another issue is the type of occupation. For instance, Firefighters and Policemen have their own 'plans of coverage' for on-the-job injuries.
Some other occupations may also fall into this "TYPE" of situation. Off the top of my head, however, these are the only two coming to mind.
Even if the state has an exemption AVAILABLE (number or type of employee) the employer remains liable, so exercising the exemption is not wise unless you have funding available to pay a claim. An option in most states for *some* workers is Occupational Accident coverage, which can provide many benefits similar but not equal to Workers Compensation coverage.
Can workmen s compensation be waived?
Workers' Compensation can usually be waived only b7y the owner-opetaor of a business. The system replaces the right to sue an employer for an accident, but applies even if the employee caused the injury by his own geligence. Failure of an employee to provide Workers' Compenasation is often against the law and can give rise to treble damages.
AnswerAny employee in any state can legally opt out of Workers Comp for any reason (must follow the procedures in his state to do so.) Most if not all states provide exemptions from coverage due to company size (only a few employees) or type of worker (volunteer, partner, executive, owner.) That said, however, the employer remains liable whether he's exercising an exemption or an employee has opted out, and should take care to comply with the state's regulations for those who don't carry coverage AND can write a big check if they have employees who aren't covered. An alternative for those who aren't covered is Occupational Accident, which is customizable and can pay medical costs, lost wages and Accidental Death and Dismemberment, and sometimes paralysis. AnswerAn individual, city or county or business should NEVER waive the requirement for Workers Comp when its property is used for an event. A worker, even if it's a guy arranging a family reunion, may slip and fall, get hurt and try to sue the facility owner. Since short term, affordable alternative for this exists there's no reason to waive the requirement.There is no verb in your question; therefore, it can not be answered.
Example of a bad workman always blames his tools?

Can employees receiving workers compensation benefits still sue their employers for negligence?
Never. That is the core concept of WC - it is the EXCLUSIVE remedy for your injury. All courts will dismiss negligence suits against your employer. You can TRY to sue a third party who caused your workplace injury, but you need strong evidence of fault.
