The Kentucky Workers' Compensation Program is designed to compensate employees for loss of earning power due to work-related injuries or illness arising out of and in the course of their employment. The Workers' Compensation Program provides state government employees many benefits at the event of an on-the-job injury, including medical costs and disability benefits. We work closely with the Safety and RTW Programs. As of October 1, 2005, the program has elected to utilize a managed care program to provide covered medical benefits.
