What Should You Do If Your Employer Isn’t Cooperating After A Work Injury?

Nancy Salley • June 20, 2017
When you get injured at work, your first priority is to notify your employer that you have been injured. Your notification to your employer should be by written documentation, a text or an email. Your employer or their workers’ compensation carrier should send you to a medical provider.

In most cases, employers are willing to provide you the information for your workers’ compensation claim but in some cases, this can be quite difficult.

When your employer isn’t cooperating or your feel the medical provider doesn’t have your best interest in mind, it is important to remember that your well-being and your health is more important than trying to battle your employer alone.
