If you get hurt on the job, Montana workers compensation law requires you to give immediate notice to your employer. If you let more than 30 days pass, you may be too late. Also, within one year you must file documents that constitute a claim form for your injury. If your employer does not cooperate or does not have the forms, you still must get this done.
Giving notice of injury within 30 days and timely filing a claim can trip up an injured worker. Some people try to tough it out and work through an injury, or are bashful about reporting an injury for fear of being fired. Do not let these things happen to you!
