Employer May Be Sued for Denying Workers' Compensation Claim

What happens if a worker has an accident on the job and the Employer denies that the injury is related to the accident? The Employee may sue the Employer if there was some form of negligence. In effect, the injured worker may treat the event as a conventional personal injury claim. This change in the law is the result of a decision called Schroeder v. Peoplease Corp.
