This video reviews what steps you can take to pursue workers’ comp benefits if you are suffering the effects of stress at work, whether it be psychiatric or physical. If you are an injured worker with a California injury, and don’t have an attorney, this video is intended to help provide an overview of workers’ compensation topics so you can better represent yourself.

Many times people believe they need to have suffered a specific injury at work for workers’ comp to apply. However, many injuries are cumulative in nature, such as a stress injury. This video provides an overview of how to get workers’ comp started, narrowing down what your injury is that was caused by stress (whether it’s depression, anxiety, headaches, hypertension, upset stomach, etc.) from filing a Claim Form to getting testing to likely getting a panel QME.

Jeremy Lusk is a certified specialist in workers’ compensation with almost two decades of experience, and previously served as a Judge at the Fresno District Office of the WCAB. He has worked out of Fresno, but appeared at numerous Boards to represent both injured workers and employers/carriers.

No attorney/client relationship is created or implied by this video. This video is not offering legal advice as to what you should, or should not, do in your workers’ compensation case, but rather offers education/information as to the California workers’ compensation system for unrepresented workers so they can better represent themselves and make more informed decisions.
