Has your boss refused to file a workers’ compensation claim with their insurance provider on your behalf following a workplace injury? Were you terminated after attempting to collect workers’ compensation benefits? Are the benefits you’re receiving insufficient for your needs? If you answered “yes!” to any of these questions, your employer has likely violated one or more of California’s employment and labor laws. RP Law Group can help you take the necessary steps for turning this unfortunate situation around and get the compensation to which you are entitled.
Understanding the Eastvale Workers' Compensation System
In order to collect workers’ compensation benefits, you need to report your workplace injury to your employer right away. If you wait longer than 30 days to report your injury, you may not be able to collect full benefits. If your condition developed slowly, report it as soon as you become aware of the problem. Next, you will file a workers’ compensation claim that your employer should endorse. If they refuse to help you with this process, or engage in retaliatory actions, contact an experienced workers’ compensation attorney immediately.
Who Can Collect Workers' Compensation Benefits in Eastvale?
Essentially all Eastvale employees are eligible for workers’ compensation benefits, including part-time and seasonal employees and those who are not legal residents of the United States. Furthermore, your employer is required to cover any medical expense related to your injury or condition, whether you miss work because of it or not.
