Disappointed because you don’t think remote workers qualify
for workers’ comp?
You will be pleasantly surprised to learn that this is not
the case!
Traditionally, workers’ comp applies to workers injured in
the physical workspace but, as the way we work has evolved, so has the nature
of workers’ compensation.
Here are some of the biggest challenges that come with
remote workers’ comp cases:
Proof of Injury
While remote workers do qualify for workers’ comp, proving
their cases can be much more difficult and require more evidence. Remote
workers often face much more scrutiny in proving that their injury occurred
during working hours.
Employer Pushback
Some employers may try and dispute claims, arguing that the
injury wasn’t work-related, especially if it’s difficult to prove.
