Fraudulent claims for worker's compensation are costing employers, employees and
insurance companies millions of dollars per year. These kinds of false claims for
injuries didn't occur at the claimant's place of employment, or his/her injuries were
over exaggerated, or he/she caused or contributed to the injuries. Some indicators
of a fraudulent claim for worker's compensation are listed below:
- The claimant takes excessive time off prior to the injury.
- The claimant takes more time off than the injury justifies.
- The claimant is new to the job.
- The claimant makes lots of injury complaints.
- The claimant reports the injury after leaving the job.
- The claimant reports the injury after being terminated.
- The claimant demands a quick cash settlement
