If you’ve been hurt on the job, you deserve workers’ compensation benefits
These benefits are designed to provide medical coverage and financial support to employees who suffer work-related injuries or illnesses. If you were hurt in the workplace, you need to notify your supervisor. You can then complete and submit Form C-3, the Employee Claim form, to open your claim for benefits.
But claims can be denied. The insurance company may decide there is not enough evidence to support your claim, or that you had a pre-existing condition. Navigating the complex claims process and building a strong case can be overwhelming, especially while you are still recovering from your injury. We can help.
