Dan Pruitt Informs South Carolina Workers of New Workers' Compensation Coverage
According to statistics reported by South Carolina's Workers' Compensation Commission, there were 62,977 accident cases filed in the 2014-2015 fiscal year. In cases with favorable outcomes, workers were paid nearly $875,000,000 for medical coverage and other expenses during that time period. Tens of thousands of workers are injured in the workplace each year, but unfortunately some people have been denied compensation because the nature of the injury was not covered under workers' compensation laws.
