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.
