Workers Compensation Insurance

Workers’ Compensation is best defined in two parts:

Part One

Workers’ Compensation insurance agrees to pay the benefits required under the Workers’ Compensation law produced by state or federal regulations. The employee’s injury or illness must arise out of and in the course of employment. Once this has been established, the employer is legally beholden to pay the required benefits for that injury, including medical costs and lost wages (up to statutory limits). Such accolades are granted without regard to fault or negligence on the employer’s part.

Part Two

Employer’s Liability insurance provides coverage for an employer’s legal liability to employees not covered by the Workers’ Compensation law. When the injury or illness is outside the scope of Workers’ Compensation law, the employee retains the right to sue the employer under common law. However, the employer is protected by three common law defenses:

  • Assumption of risk
  • Contributory negligence
  • Negligence of a fellow employee
