Your Workers’ Comp Claim Rights

Washington employers must have no-fault workers’ compensation insurance that provides benefits to every injured worker. While most employers use the workers’ compensation insurance provided by the Washington State Department of Labor and Industries (L&I), some employers opt for private, self-insured coverage.

In both cases, an employer’s workers’ compensation insurance must include benefits like:

Appropriate medical care and medical treatment until you reach maximum medical improvement (MMI)
Paying for your medical bills and medical expenses
The right to choose a doctor within the L&I network
Time-loss compensation to pay you for lost wages when unable to work
Permanent partial disability payments
Loss of earning power (LEP) benefits, when you can return to work but cannot earn the same pay you did before your injury
Vocational retraining if you’re able to work but can’t return to your job or any other reasonably available jobs
Permanent pension if you’re unable to return to any kind of work due to your workplace injury
Death benefits

While employers are required to pay for these workers’ compensation benefits, there are many times when these benefits are denied for technical or invalid reasons. Even when you know your rights, proving you’re entitled to the proper workers’ compensation benefits can be complex.
