Overview

The church is hardly a high-risk or hazardous work environment. The halls are not adorned with banners promoting a safe workplace or documenting how many days have passed since the last on-the-job injury. But that doesn't mean church staff members never get hurt on the job. This download will help your church answer questions like: who qualifies for workers' compensation? What if the injury occurs during an activity that doesn't directly relate to a church employee's duties? And what does workers' compensation cover?
