An interesting history of the development of Workers Compensation created by students at Nimitz High School, Houston Texas, for a National History Day contest. 2008. Surprisingly interesting and well-done.

SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION
If you have suffered a serious injury, go to the emergency room or see a doctor right away.
NOTIFY YOUR EMPLOYER
It's up to your employer to file a claim with the insurance company. They cannot do that until you notify them of your injury and fill out an accident report.
FILE A CLAIM DIRECTLY - DO NOT DELAY
If your employer denied your claim or refuses to file with the insurance company, you can still file a claim directly with the Workers' Compensation Administration
KEEP A RECORD OF INJURIES AND TREATMENT
Keep a journal or detailed record of any injuries sustained, days of missed work and any medical treatments received following your injury.
