Although ti supposedly says that 'legally authorized' aliens...that's BS. I can give you information about several different illegals that have received or are receiving WC benefits..if they have not settled. One of them is a young man. Walked across a stairwell & the cardboard broke, sending him down 2 floors. His co-workers PICKED him up and moved him to his uncle's truck, instead of calling 911. Left him there for the day, moved him to his uncle's LR and he was finally taken to the ER 24 hrs after incident. He is a quad - however, since he can move some fingers slightly, he is a high functioning quad who had a vehicle retrofitted so he could drive. House was retrofitted. His mother, wife and toddler daughter were brought up here to care for him and were being paid for caring for him. That's 4 of them here. They were in the midst of settlement discussions when I left, but there were a LOT of demands. He was working for a sub that didn't have WC, so it fell to the contractor to pay for it. Another woman, in her 50s, lost her job after an injury. She was released back to work and the position was discontinued...economic downturn. She was able to draw permanent and total disability, in spite of being released for work with no restrictions. Her 'disability'? Little to no English. If you are Spanish speaking, WC injury and can't get another job, you can claim total/perm if you cannot speak enough English to get another job! This woman has been here over 20 years...she can speak English, but we had no way to prove it. Swift was one of our clients - the plant ICE did a big raid on 2 yrs ago...yep...had a number of claims the day after it. CO gives WC to illegals, they just do not want to advertise it, but if you are an employer here hiring illegals, then they can claim WC for job injuries and get it. If you do not carry it since all your employees are illegals...look out. You will be in trouble. Not for hiring illegals, but for not having WC for them.

What happened was he mangled his own face with a chainsaw while at work. He got over $30k plus an all expenses paid vacation back to RI (and our fine hospitals) courtesy of the state. I wish I was joking.

Better would be a situation where the EMPLOYER was liable for any injuries sustained by an illegal alien on the payroll, where the employer has to pay out of their own pockets the cost of medical care; however the illegal doesn't get to collect anything except a bus or plane ride back home. And last I knew there wasn't any tax money involved in Worker's Comp aside from whatever is spent by the various state labor departments to oversee it. Be careful for what you ask for;
