Workers' Compensation
Types of Injuries
Wisconsin state law covers mental and physical injuries that result from work accidents and occupational illnesses. This includes brain, neck, back or head injury and illnesses such as hearing loss or cancer caused by toxic chemical exposure.
If you work in an office or store, workers’ compensation is only applicable if the injury occurred at your place of employment. However, if your job requires traveling, you are covered at all times during travel. This includes time spent eating or sleeping, unless the employer’s insurance carrier has reason to believe that you injury resulted in activities that deviated from your regular work duties. In such a case, your Wisconsin workers’ compensation case may be denied.
