Workers Compensation
What must I do when I am injured at work?
Injured workers must report the injury within seven days. In addition to mail and Internet, most companies have an 800 number you can call. Afterward, injured workers must see a company-designated physician. Once the doctor files a report, the insurance company has 21 days to approve or deny the claim.
What if my employer does not have workers compensation insurance?
Workers compensation insurance is an important protective measure for Utah workers. So, an employer without insurance can be fined up to three times the amount of the premium that would have been paid. In addition, it may be easier to sue your employer directly for the injuries you sustained.
