Workers Compensation is a system that provides financial and medical benefits to employees who are injured on the job. Employers offer this insurance as a tradeoff so that employees do not sue the employer or coworkers for negligence leading to a work related ailment. This is referred to as a “no fault” system. The California workers’ compensation system can be very helpful after an accident in most cases. When a worker is injured on the job the workers compensation system is the only way injured workers are able to receive proper medical and financial benefits. So, it is essential to know your rights underneath the California work comp laws and seek the legal representation of an experienced workers comp lawyer in Orange County if you are uncertain of what those rights are.
