Workers’ compensation may be privatized in the future in Texas

Texas is known for many things besides being the lone star state. For instance, when it comes to workers’ compensation insurance, Texas is nefarious for being a state that does not require all employers to obtain workers’ compensation coverage. Fortunately, Austin workplace accident attorneys are not only available to help those who have been injured on the job but to also help individuals understand the law and any upcoming changes.

For example, a recently proposed set of bills will cut any ties between Texas Mutual Insurance Co. and the government. TMIC is Texas’s largest workers’ compensation insurance company. This will allow the company to privatize which could potentially mean improvements for workers’ compensation beneficiaries.
