What is workers' compensation in South Carolina?

If you have been injured on-the-job in Beaufort, Hilton Head Island, Bluffton or anywhere else across the Lowcountry, you are likely entitled to workers' compensation benefits. Workers' compensation benefits - also known as workers' comp or workman's comp benefits - are financial benefits designed to minimize the impact of work-related injuries or illnesses on workers and employers.

In general, South Carolina employers with more than four part-time or full-time employees are required to provide workers' compensation insurance for their employees. Workers' compensation benefits are paid by the employer's insurance company, and the system is administered by the South Carolina Workers' Compensation Commission. Examples of benefits injured workers may be entitled to include compensation for lost wages, medical expenses, as well as temporary or permanent disability that results from your work injury.
