If you’ve been injured on the job in Missouri, you may be wondering where to turn for help with your workers’ compensation claim. The process can be confusing and overwhelming, but resources are available to guide you through it.
First, it’s important to understand that most employers are required to carry workers’ compensation insurance in Missouri. If you’re injured on the job, your employer’s insurance should cover your medical expenses and lost wages. However, getting the benefits you’re entitled to can be a challenging process.
Missouri Division of Worker’s Compensation
One of the first places to turn for help is the Missouri Division of Workers’ Compensation. They are responsible for administering the state’s workers’ compensation program and can provide information on how to file a claim, what benefits you may be eligible for, and how to appeal a denied claim.
