Who is Entitled to Workers’ Compensation in Dallas?
Workers’ Compensation insurance provides lost wages and medical benefits to employees who are injured while on the job. In Texas, not all employers are required to carry Workers’ Compensation insurance except for governmental entities.
To qualify for Workers’ Compensation insurance benefits, a qualified worker must:
Immediately report their injury to their employer;
Seek medical attention right away with an approved network provider;
File a Workers’ Compensation Claim with the Texas Division of Workers’ Compensation; and
Workers’ Compensation Claims must be filed within thirty days of the work accident injury.
Independent contractors may be entitled to Workers’ Compensation insurance benefits. However, the independent contractor must prove the employer was negligent before benefits are paid.
Employers Without Workers’ Compensation Insurance in Dallas
There are certain circumstances where an employee can pursue a personal injury claim against an employer that does not carry Workers’ Compensation insurance. Every case is factually unique and should be reviewed with an experienced Dallas work accident injury attorney.
Third-Party Claims
Non-employers or third parties can be responsible for work accident injuries. Third parties may be an option for recovery in addition to or in the absence of Workers’ Compensation insurance.
Third-party claims are complex and should be thoroughly discussed with a Dallas work accident attorney before any contact with the insurance companies.
