Employers may simply not know how to file a claim with their insurance. In my experience, I have handled the following instances:
- An Employer asking the employee hurt at the job site to file a file claim on their car insurance;
- The Employer promises to pay the worker hurt on the job cash not to file a claim;
- The Employer doesn’t even have workers’ compensation insurance.
