Immediately report your injury to your employer and to the Bureau of Workers’ Compensation (BWC). You should report all injuries to your employer, no matter how insignificant it may seem at the time. If medical treatment is needed it should be sought immediately.

Our office can assist you with filing you claim.  You can also file a claim by manually completing the First Report of Injury (FROI) form and mailing it to any BWC service office, or the FROI can be completed on-line.

Many Ohio workers’ compensation claims are filed by the managed care organization (MCO) after being notified of your injury by your doctor or your employer. If you have been treated for a work-related injury, a claim may have been filed for you already.
