3 Frequently Asked Workers’ Compensation Questions

If you have questions about workers’ compensation, our attorneys are here to help.

  1. Who is required to carry workers’ compensation coverage? 
    Missouri law requires all employers with five or more employees to carry workers’ compensation insurance. The insurance must cover both full and part-time employees. In addition, all construction companies must carry workers’ compensation insurance, regardless of the number of employees.
  2. What benefits can I receive through workers’ compensation?
    Workers’ compensation benefits can help pay for your medical bills and up to two-thirds of your average weekly wage if your injury causes you to miss more than three days of work. You also may be eligible for additional payments if your injury causes a permanent impairment or disability.
  3. Can my employer fire me for filing a workers’ compensation claim?
    It’s illegal for employers in Missouri to retaliate against workers for filing workers’ compensation claims. If you feel that your employer treated you unfairly after you filed a claim, a St. Louis workers’ compensation lawyer can protect your rights.
