Illegal immigrants due workers comp benefits: Court

[rs232c]

For the insurance company to be liable they must've received premiums for the employee. If they did not check or care if he was illegal the point is now moot they have to pay.

I don't know of any law that says workman's comp is for citizens only so if they paid the premiums then yes he should be compensated for a valid claim.

There's alot not mentioned but one thing is clear, there is no benefit to hire an illegal over a citizen for workman's compensation claims. I hope that puts an end to the fantasies over employers who have those dreams of scheming to make more money by hiring illegals to reduce 'comps'.
