Is an injured worker required to leave a recorded statement of the accident with their employer or the workers’ compensation insurance company?
No. This is not required in order for you to receive benefits. All your employer or workers’ compensation insurance company needs is proper notice of your accident plus the details of the doctor from whom you are receiving treatment. It is important to remember that if a recorded statement – audio or video – is taken, it is not to the benefit of the injured worker. This recorded statement could on the contrary be used as evidence against you.
