- BENEFIT PROGRAMS Section 9.1 - Workers’ Compensation Sample Clauses

The Workers’ Compensation clause establishes the employer’s obligation to provide workers’ compensation insurance coverage for employees as required by law. This typically means the employer must secure and maintain insurance that covers medical expenses and lost wages for employees who are injured or become ill due to their job duties. The clause applies to all employees covered under relevant state or federal workers’ compensation statutes. Its core practical function is to ensure that employees are protected in the event of work-related injuries or illnesses, while also limiting the employer’s liability by complying with statutory insurance requirements.
