Your employer has certain duties to you if you are injured on the job. There are certain things you must do to retain your eligibility for workers’ compensations—such as report your injury immediately, visit your doctor as you should, follow medical instructions, and meet paperwork requirements—but if your employer fails to fulfill its side of things, you may have a case.
In South Carolina, your employer must satisfy the following:
- Provide workers’ compensation insurance
- Provide available doctors or medical treatment
- Report the injury to the insurer
- Other conditions as triggered by events or law
If you believe that your employer failed to fulfill its workers’ compensation duties or if you require help with any other part of the process, please contact the office today. You may also have a personal injury lawsuit against the employer or any negligent parties.
