Workers' Compensation Insurance and Claims

UCP/CLASS assists the Consumer Employer in applying for state mandated workers’ compensation insurance for their employees. Workers’ compensation insurance provides medical services for the employee in cases when they are injured on the job.

Please contact your Resource Coordinator for detailed information on enrollment in and management of the workers’ compensation process.

Injuries to Report

The Direct Care Worker should report all injuries received on the job to their Consumer Employer so they may complete an injury report (See Downloadable Form Below). The Consumer Employer must then file all reports with their Resource Coordinator to ensure that the report is filed with the insurance provider. The Resource Coordinator will work with the insurance provider and the Direct Care Worker until the worker receives a doctors’ clearance to return to work.
