If your injury prevents you from returning to your previous job, you may have the right to work with a Qualified Rehabilitation Consultant (QRC). A QRC helps injured workers explore return-to-work options, job placement, retraining, and vocational rehabilitation services.
After a work injury, it’s important to understand your rights under workers’ compensation law. This includes your right to medical care, wage loss benefits, and protection from retaliation for reporting an injury.

Reporting an injury isn’t always enough. If the claim isn’t officially filed, benefits can be delayed or denied. Always confirm your claim is on record to protect your medical care and wage benefits. #WorkersComp#WorkInjury#InjuredAtWork#WorkersRights

If you are hurt at work, one of the most important steps is filing a First Report of Injury. This document officially starts your workers’ compensation claim and creates a record of what happened, when it happened, and how you were hurt. Without it, benefits can be denied.

Report your injury immediately. This is the first step in a Minnesota workers’ compensation claim and helps protect your health, benefits, and legal rights.
Surgery can change your benefits. Surgery can often slow the overall timeline of your claim. And in many cases, a QRC gets assigned to help manage work restrictions, treatment plans, and your return to work. It can affect the entire direction of your claim. #WorkInjury
