🚨 Workers' Compensation Myth vs. Fact 🚨
🚨 Workers' Compensation Myth vs. Fact 🚨
MYTH: If the accident was your fault, you can't receive workers' compensation benefits.
FACT: In most North Carolina workers' compensation claims, fault doesn't determine whether you're eligible for benefits.
That means you may still qualify for workers' compensation benefits if:
✔ You slipped and fell
✔ You lifted something incorrectly
✔ You made a mistake while performing your job duties
✔ No one else caused the accident
The key question is often whether the injury arose out of and in the course of your employment.
Many injured workers never file a claim because they incorrectly assume they were "to blame."
Don't let a myth keep you from understanding your rights.
