The injured workers’ entitlement to benefits and the employer’s rights and responsibilities are governed by the Rhode Island Workers’ Compensation Act. This “Act” or the laws enacted by the General Assembly are construed by the Rhode Island Workers’ Compensation Court every single day. In addition, the method of construing and applying these laws are governed by Rules of Procedure adopted by the Court.

Our program will be taught by lawyers who are in this Court every day and provide you an overview of the laws and the rules and insight on best practices and how to use these laws to the advantage of you and your employees.
