How a Claim Moves in Utah

The steps below use the deadlines Utah sets. Your claim may not need every step.

  1. Get medical careTell the doctor or clinic that the injury happened at work, so it is documented from the first visit.
  2. Report the injury to your employer in writingUtah gives you 180 days to report it. Do it as soon as you can and keep a copy; a text or email works.
  3. Your employer files a First Report of InjuryYour employer has 7 days to forward your report to its workers' comp insurer.
  4. The insurer pays, denies, or investigatesThe insurer then has 21 days to start paying, deny the claim, or open an investigation. An investigation adds at most 24 more days.
  5. If there is a dispute, the Labor Commission decidesIf your claim is denied or you disagree with the insurer, you can file an Application for Hearing with the Utah Labor Commission, generally within 1 year of the injury or your last benefit payment. Disputes can go to mediation and, if needed, a hearing.
  6. Know your numbers before you signBefore you accept a settlement offer, estimate what your claim may be worth with the free calculator. The result is an estimate, not legal advice.

What benefits is a Provo injured worker entitled to?

Under Utah Code Title 34A, Chapter 2, an injured worker may be entitled to four categories of benefits, depending on the case:

1. Lost Wage Benefits (TTD / TPD)

If your injury keeps you out of work, Utah pays Temporary Total Disability (TTD) at 66.67% of your Average Weekly Wage, capped at the State Average Weekly Wage. If you return to work but earn less because of restrictions, you may qualify for Temporary Partial Disability (TPD).

2. Permanent Partial Disability (PPD)

Once your condition stabilizes, your treating physician assigns an impairment rating. Utah PPD is calculated as: impairment % × 312 weeks × benefit rate. The CVR calculator computes this automatically.

3. Medical Benefits

Workers' compensation pays 100% of authorized medical care related to the injury — no deductibles, no copays. This includes doctor visits, surgery, physical therapy, prescriptions, and prosthetics. You also get reimbursed for medical mileage.

4. Permanent Total Disability (PTD)

If you cannot return to any work due to the injury, you may qualify for PTD — weekly benefits paid for life. Utah law also has statutory PTD for permanent loss of both hands, both eyes, both legs, or any combination thereof.

Workers' Comp Questions from Provo Workers

Three things, in order: (1) Get medical care immediately — tell the doctor it happened at work. (2) Report the injury to your employer in writing within 180 days. (3) Use our free calculator to estimate what your case may be worth before you accept any settlement offer from the insurance company.

Workers' compensation claims in Utah are filed with the Utah Labor Commission, Industrial Accidents Division. The Commission is headquartered in Salt Lake City but handles cases for all of Utah, including Provo, Orem, and the surrounding communities. You can file by mail or online through their portal.

Not always. Claims with no impairment rating and a cooperative employer often close without an attorney. If your claim is denied, the insurer's offer looks low, or you have a serious impairment, talk to a Utah workers' comp attorney before you sign anything. Most work on contingency (no fee unless you win), and Utah law caps the fee at 25%.

There is no "average" because every case is different — it depends on your wages, the severity of the injury, the impairment rating, and how long you were out of work. Use the CVR calculator to get a Utah-specific estimate based on your actual numbers, not a generic average.

No. Utah Code 34A-2-114 makes retaliation for filing a workers' comp claim illegal. If your employer fires, demotes, or harasses you for filing, you may have an additional retaliation case beyond the workers' comp claim itself.

It depends on the claim. Once your employer reports the injury, the insurer has 21 days to start paying, deny the claim, or open an investigation (an investigation adds at most 24 days). If you have a permanent impairment, the PPD rating comes after your condition stabilizes, so the claim stays open until then. Denied or disputed claims that go to mediation or a hearing at the Labor Commission take longer. The CVR Quick Calculator shows your estimate right away, so you can plan.

CVR applies Utah's workers' compensation formulas (Utah Code Title 34A, Chapter 2) and the official Labor Commission rates for your year of injury. The result is an estimate: it depends on the numbers you enter (wages, dates, impairment rating), and the final amount depends on your medical records, the insurer, and, if there is a dispute, the Labor Commission. It is not legal advice.

No. You can use the free Quick Calculator and create your own CVR report, in English or Spanish. Attorneys use CVR too, and if you decide to hire one, you can share your report with them. CVR is not a law firm and does not give legal advice.

Yes. The Quick Calculator on this site is free: no credit card, and no signup to see your estimate. The full CVR report, a detailed PDF breakdown of your case, is an optional paid product.

The Quick Calculator gives you an estimate in minutes. The full CVR report is generated in the app at the end of its guided questionnaire (injury, work, wages, and medical care), once the report is paid for. How long the questionnaire takes depends on how much of that information you have at hand.

Yes. CVR covers Repetitive Injury Claims (for example, carpal tunnel or other injuries from repeated motions at work), as well as industrial accidents, harmful exposure, permanent total disability, and death claims. For a repetitive injury, the 180-day reporting clock starts when you knew, or should have known, that the injury was related to your work.
