Workers’ Compensation Claim Management Checklist
Filing a workers’ compensation claim as soon as possible – ideally within 24 hours of the injury – is important. Filing a claim quickly sends a positive message to the injured employee that he or she is valued. Delayed filing can jeopardize a claim investigation, increase the cost of the claim and increase the potential for litigation.
