Workers’ compensation coverage is required by law for most employers in Florida. This essentially ensures that the employer is covered in an event in which an employee is injured. Regardless of who is at fault or who caused the accident, workers compensation law in Florida makes it a legal obligation for the employer to provide the employee involved with compensation for their injuries. Not only does this law ensure employees are compensated for any injuries they suffer while working, but it also protects employers from being faced with lawsuits and other legal disputes against their own employees. Ultimately Florida workers compensation law can be beneficial for both employers and employees, depending on the situation in which they are involved.
