Workers' Compensation insurance is a program established by State law which all employers having one or more employees, full or part-time, are required to have for the benefit of their employees. It is a no-fault system under which injured employees receive benefits in connection with work-related injuries or occupational illness. The Workers' Compensation Commission is the State Arbitration Board that ensures employees are given fair treatment in the event of a work-related accident or illness.

Workers' compensation is a mandatory insurance program that provides for the payment of medical expenses and wage loss replacement for people who are injured while on the job. It is a no-fault system and all employers must participate in the workers' compensation system. Any employee who is injured in the "course and scope" of their employment is entitled to file a claim.
