Workers Compensation in Oklahoma

If you've been diagnosed with an occupational disease or have been injured on the job, you may be entitled to compensation under Oklahoma's workers' compensation insurance laws. These benefits cover costs related to your injury, such as medical expenses and lost wages. A workers' comp attorney can guide you through the process of obtaining benefits after you've been injured.

Oklahoma Workers' Compensation Basics

Under the Oklahoma workers' compensation act, most employees in the state are covered by workers' compensation insurance.

According to the Department of Labor Commissioner:

"By law, coverage is mandatory for all employers except: domestic or household employees where total payroll is less than $10,000 annually; agricultural or horticultural employees where total payroll is less than $100,000 annually; certain licensed real estate sales persons and brokers; and employees covered under Federal laws."

Workman's comp benefits cover:

• Medical expenses
• Physical and vocational rehabilitation
• Disability
• Lost wages
• Death benefits

A workers' compensation lawyer can guide you through the claims process, help you appeal a denied claim and ensure that you receive all of the money you're owed.
