North Carolina Workers' Compensation Law: What Injured Workers Need to Know
Your Benefits Under NC Law
North Carolina's Workers' Compensation Act requires most employers with three or more employees to carry workers' compensation insurance. If you are injured on the job or develop an occupational disease as a result of your work, you are generally entitled to benefits including payment of all medical expenses related to your injury, two-thirds of your average weekly wage while you are unable to work, and compensation for any permanent disability you sustain. These benefits are available regardless of fault, you do not need to prove that your employer was negligent to receive workers' comp benefits.
Insurance Companies Fight Back
Despite what the law entitles you to, employers and their insurance carriers routinely deny claims, dispute the severity of injuries, cut off benefits prematurely, or pressure workers to return to work before they have fully recovered. Insurance adjusters work for the insurance company, not for you. Their goal is to minimize the amount paid out on your claim. Without an experienced workers' compensation attorney on your side, you may receive far less than what you are legally owed, or have your claim denied entirely.
