In the determination of damages, which aspect will the workers compensation adjuster not evaluate?

The focus of a workers' compensation adjuster is on the specific injuries sustained by the employee and the associated costs that arise from those injuries. In this context, the evaluate aspects include the cost of medical treatments, lost wages due to the employee's inability to work, and the extent of the injury itself.

The party at fault is not a consideration in workers' compensation claims because this system is designed to provide benefits to injured workers regardless of who caused the injury. Workers' compensation operates on a no-fault basis, meaning that the focus is on the worker's compensation for medical treatment and lost wages rather than on establishing liability or fault. This helps ensure that injured employees receive timely benefits without the lengthy process of determining liability, which is a characteristic of other types of legal claims, such as personal injury claims.
