What can employees do if their employer does not file their claim?

Posted on Monday, June 14th, 2010 at 7:04 am    

When employees are injured on the job, they may want to file a workers’ compensation claim with their employer. While filing such a claim typically initiates the workers’ compensation process, some employers may not report the claim to the workers’ compensation insurance carrier.

If this occurs, employees have a number of options. They may want to contact the insurance carrier directly, or they may want to file a claim with their state’s workers’ compensation division. Filing such claims and challenging their employer, however, may bring about a number of legal contingencies.

If you or anyone you know has considered filing a workers’ compensation claim, contact the New Jersey workers’ compensation attorneys of Levinson Axelrod, P.A., at 888-389-COMP.
