1. I WAS INJURED ON THE JOB. WHAT DO I DO NOW?

  • Report the injury to your supervisor immediately, but no later than 72 hours after the injury occurs.
  • Seek medical attention, if necessary. This can be done even if you don’t have a claim number assigned, just let the healthcare provider know the treatment is for a work-related injury.
  • File a Report of Injury with Workers’ Compensation within 10 days. Complete the form in its entirety, preferably with your employer. Ensure all information is correct. You must sign your report form!
  • Upon receipt, the Division will assign you a nine-digit claim number. You must give this number to all your healthcare providers so they may bill the Division directly for injury-related medical care.

2. WHERE ARE WORKERS’ COMPENSATION FIELD OFFICES LOCATED?

For the convenience of our customers, we have field offices located across the state.

3. MY EMPLOYER SAYS I HAVE TO SEE THEIR DOCTOR, DO I?
