Workers' compensation
Employee accidents and injuries can happen daily -- and sometimes with disastrous consequences for your business. When these injuries happen, there are multiple layers to your response, everything from getting the employee the help they deserve to helping to keep the wheels turning while key workers are unavailable and getting them back to work in due course. You'll also want to consider how to help prevent them from happening in the future.
Hanover has assembled the advisories below to help you consider all those facets of your workers' safety and the appropriate response to an accident or injury. For a full page of resources to help you manage a claim once one happens, see the link below in Claims Management.
