Workers' Compensation

The purpose of the WC law is to provide wage loss compensation and medical care to those employees who suffer work-related injuries.

Temporary Disability Insurance

TDI benefits partially replace wages lost when an employee is unable to work because of an off-the-job sickness or injury, if the employee meets the qualifying conditions of the law.

Prepaid Health Care

The PHC law requires that employers provide employees adequate medical coverage for non-work related illness or injury, if employees meet the qualifying conditions of the law.
