Workers' Compensation

The workers' compensation program in lausd offers state-mandated benefits to employees who suffer work-related injuries or illnesses without fault. Being self-insured, Lausd covers the actual costs of claims instead of using an insurance company. A third-party administrator is hired to handle workers' compensation claims on behalf of the district.

The workers' compensation department is dedicated to providing timely and compassionate support to lausd employees affected by work-related injuries or illnesses. Our commitment involves delivering exceptional care and aiding in their recovery with honesty, transparency, and fairness under the workers’ compensation legislation. By promoting effective communication and collaboration, we aim to assist our employees in their recovery process. Our primary objective is to cultivate a supportive environment where employees can return to work motivated and productive, ensuring the success of our students and the lausd community.
