Employee's Report of Claim
Workers' Compensation laws and insurance plans exist to protect employees who are injured on the job or develop illnesses from job-related work. Employees and their families can collect monies to help with medical expenses, loss of wages and for death and burial expenses if needed.
However, the benefits don't just materialize because your employer carries Workers' Compensation insurance. There are specific instructions for filing a claim and specific time frames for doing so. If injured on the job, one of the first things you need to do is complete the Employee's Report of Claim form and submit it to your employer. This form requires basic information about yourself (name, address, etc.) and also information about the how, when and where the injury occurred. Your employer also has to fill out similar forms to report the accident.
If you've been injured in an accident at work or suffer from a job-related illness, it's time to get more information. If you live and are employed in Michigan, please contact the Michigan workers' compensation attorneys at Jay Trucks & Associates. We have extensive experience working within the workers' compensation system to get you the benefits you qualify for and deserve. We offer free consultations and case reviews.
