Employers would also be wise to have a workers’ com- pensation attorney on call for shepherding injury cases, even if litigation is not anticipated. “Bear in mind that in- surance companies often have a self-interest in managing claims slowly, while it can be better for employers to get the workers back to work without delay,” said Shaw. “It can be cost effective to have an attorney on retainer for a cou- ple of hours a month to push claims forward.” While the business environment is becoming more sympathetic to the claims of injured workers, employers can take steps to mitigate the dangers. “The financial health of the workers’ compensation system follows from businesses being in control of safety programs and man- aging claims effectively,” said Sieberg. “But employers have to be diligent. They have to stay on top of things.” QUIZ: Are You Reducing The Risk Of Costly Claims? Are you doing enough to reduce the risk of costly workers’ compensation claims? Find out by taking this quiz.
