Los Angeles Workers Compensation

It is unfortunate that Los Angeles employees may not understand how to collect the benefits they need, or they may be misinformed by their employers about their right to file a claim. In other cases, workers do not realize their injury or sickness was caused by their job, or they may believe that their injury is not serious enough to merit benefits.

Nearly all employees in Los Angeles are covered by workers’ compensation insurance. Under the workers’ compensation system, employers agree to pay medical expenses and lost wages for an employee’s job-related injury or illness—even if the employee is at fault for his or her injuries. In exchange, the employee agrees not to sue his or her employer in court for damages.
