Overview:
Workers’ Compensation is a no-fault liability insurance program that compensates employees with payment of medical and rehabilitation costs plus lost income for injury, illness, disability, or death resulting from accidents arising out of and in the course of employment. Typically state-sponsored plans, Workers’ Compensation benefits must be integrated with private-plan benefits when determining lost wages for an employee who becomes ill, disabled, or dies due to job-related conditions. This course shows managers and business professionals how Workers’ Compensation insurance operates and what an organization’s obligations are under these plans.
