What Does Workers' Compensation Cover in Hartford?
Workers' compensation covers a broad spectrum of work-related injuries and illnesses. These can be broken down into two main categories: traumatic injuries and occupational illnesses. No matter the cause of your injury, if it occurred on the job, you may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and more.
Traumatic Injuries
A traumatic injury occurs as the result of an accident or sudden event that happens while you are performing your job duties. To qualify for workers’ compensation, the injury must:
Require medical treatment
Be directly related to your job responsibilities
Common traumatic injuries include:
Broken bones from a slip and fall
Back injuries from lifting heavy items
Head injuries caused by falling objects or accidents
Some injuries and illnesses develop over time, usually as a result of ongoing exposure to certain conditions at work. These are often harder to identify but are still covered under workers’ compensation, including:
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome from repetitive movements like typing or assembly line work
Strains and Sprains from heavy lifting or repetitive tasks
Respiratory Conditions from exposure to harmful chemicals
Hearing Loss from constant exposure to loud machinery
Heat-Related Illnesses from working in extreme temperatures
If your condition has developed due to your job, Goff Law Group can help you pursue the compensation you deserve.
Do You Qualify for Workers’ Compensation in Hartford?
If your injury or illness is directly related to your job, you may qualify for workers' compensation benefits. The claims process in Connecticut can be confusing, but we’re here to help you navigate it every step of the way.
How to File a Workers' Compensation Claim in Hartford
Getting your workers’ compensation claim filed correctly is crucial to ensure you get the benefits you're entitled to. At Goff Law Group, we’ll guide you through the necessary steps to protect your claim.
Report Your Injury Immediately
As soon as you’re injured, report it to your employer. Provide all necessary details, including when, where, and how the injury happened. Delays in reporting can result in your claim being denied.
Seek Medical Treatment
After reporting the injury, seek medical care. Your employer may direct you to an approved provider, or you can choose your own doctor. Be honest and thorough about your symptoms and treatment.
File Your Claim with the Workers’ Compensation Commission
Your employer should file a report, but you must submit Form 30C to the Workers' Compensation Commission within one year of the injury or three years from the first symptoms of an occupational illness.
Insurance Company Investigation
After your claim is filed, the insurance company will investigate your case, review medical records, and assess your ability to return to work. The insurer is required to make a decision within 28 days.
By law, insurers must approve or deny your claim within 28 days. If approved, you’ll begin receiving payments.
