FAQ: What do I do after I report a work-related injury to my employer?
If you’re injured on the job, you need to get medical treatment as soon as possible and emergency treatment if required. With certain types of on-the-job injuries, such as falls, you may not even realize you’ve broken a bone or suffered joint damage.
Once stable, report the injury to your employer and obtain a claim form. Under California law, your employer must provide or mail you a Claim Form (DWC 1) within one working day after you report your injury or illness.
Doctor’s Duties
When you see a doctor, you should receive appropriate care for your work-related injury. Some employers require employees to see specific doctors covered by an employee’s health insurance, but you may be able to visit your own. Our legal team can help you go to the right doctor.
Doctors who take patients who have been injured at work should do the following things:
- Manage your overall care
- help you figure out the best time to return to work
- help you figure out what kind of work you can do while recovering (if any)
- Refer you to a specialist (if necessary)
- Write medical reports that will help determine your benefits
Be sure to explain your symptoms and what you believe caused them. Additionally, describe your work environment accurately and thoroughly.
FAQ: Where can I get more information about my rights?
Our free consultation is an excellent first step toward understanding your rights under California’s workers’ compensation laws. Our legal team will answer your questions and explain how the system and process work. You can visit the State of California Division of Workers’ Compensation website online.
What if my employer does not honor my workers’ compensation claim?
Unfortunately, some employers don’t have their employees’ best interests at heart. They will find no excuse to deny your benefits. If you’re not treated fairly or your insurance carrier refuses to pay your workers’ compensation benefits, one of our skilled lawyers can help.
