Facts About Workers Compensation

  
 

Workers' Compensation laws are laws passed to guarantee that employees who are injured or disabled on the job are provided with monetary awards, eliminating the need for unnecessary litigation. But sometimes companies and private employers subvert these laws and fail to pay sufficient money to those injured or disabled on the job. A total of 4.7 million nonfatal injuries and illnesses were reported in private industry workplaces during 2002, resulting in a rate of 5.3 cases per 100 equivalent full-time workers, according to a survey by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor.

Workers' compensation laws were enacted to make litigation less costly.

The first state law was passed in Maryland in 1902, and the first law covering federal employees was passed in 1906. By 1949, all states had enacted some kind of workers' compensation regime.
