Workers Compensation Legal Framework
Workers compensation laws create a framework to protect injured workers. They provide monetary compensation to employees for medical bills, lost wages or permanent disability.
They also limit the amount that an injured worker can seek from their employer and remove coworkers' liability in the majority of workplace accidents. This is done to reduce the time costs, cost, and anger of litigation.
What is Workers' Compensation?
Workers compensation is a type of insurance that offers cash benefits and medical treatment to employees who are injured at work. In exchange for employees agreeing to waive their rights to sue their employers the insurance is designed to safeguard the employees from large tort verdicts and settlements.
Nearly all states require workers insurance for compensation to be purchased by employers who have at two employees. Smaller companies with less than two employees are exempt from this requirement. Independent freelancers and contractors are not typically required to carry workers insurance for compensation.
The system is a public-private partnership which was established to provide medical treatment and income protection to employees who suffer from injuries or illness. The majority of employers purchase workers' compensation insurance through private insurance companies or state-certified compensation funds.
The benefits and premiums for each province are based on payroll, industry sector, and the history of injuries (or lack thereof) at work. This is known as experience rating. It is sensitive to frequency of loss more than loss severity due to the fact that insurance companies are aware that businesses which are often involved in an accident are more likely to incur massive losses over time.
In addition to paying medical benefits and cash employers are also required to report and pay the cost of lost productivity while an employee recovers from an injury. This is the major driving force behind the costs of the workers compensation system.
The Workers' Compensation Board is the governing body of the program, and it is a state agency that examines all claims and intervenes if necessary to ensure that employers or their insurance carriers pay the entire amount they are responsible for, including medical care. It also provides a forum for dispute resolution, which includes benefit review conferences as well as appeals.
