Seeking Workers’ Compensation Benefits After an Injury
Part-time employees should follow the same steps as a full-time employee when seeking benefits after suffering an injury on the job. This includes:
● Report the injury to the employer.
● Seek medical care.
● Follow the advice and direction of your medical provider.
● Retain all records and receipts related to the injury.
● Consider discussing your claim with an attorney to ensure your rights are protected.
Part-time workers have rights that can be protected. If you have suffered an injury in the course of your part-time job, you may be eligible for workers’ compensation benefits.
