Workers' comp insurance serves the dual purpose of compensating your employees while saving you from paying out of pocket for employee-related medical bills or legal expenses. It also pays for their ongoing care (physical therapy and rehabilitation) and replaces a portion of the income lost while they are recovering from their injury or illness. In worst-case scenarios, this policy will cover the funeral/burial costs of the employee if they pass away as a result of the injury or illness.
If an injured employee sues you, workers' comp will cover the attorney fees, defense and settlement costs, and other legal expenses.
