Home Depot Workers’ Compensation Claims in Texas

If you suffered an injury on the job, you expect that you will be able to recover through workers’ compensation.

However, this is not always the case. 

Injuries on the job at Home Depot can cause extreme pain and emotional turmoil as you try to heal.

Allow our lawyers to take care of your claim and help you recover damages for your injuries while you focus on your recovery. 

Does Home Depot Workers’ Compensation Exist in Texas?

You might wonder how to get compensation from Home Depot if you suffered an injury due to an accident.

In Texas, Home Depot is not required to carry workers’ compensation; in other words, Home Depot does not subscribe to Texas’s workers’ compensation program.

Instead, Home Depot workers’ compensation is replaced by a non-subscriber policy.

Contact our skilled lawyers if you have an injury due to an accident at any of these Texas locations. We are here to advocate for your rights. 

What Is a Non-Subscriber Policy?

Non-subscriber policies differ somewhat from what Texas’s workers’ compensation program offers.

Typically, you may be offered less compensation through a non-subscriber policy than you would through the traditional workers’ compensation program.

If you suffer a work-related injury in which no other party was at fault, you will be at a disadvantage compared to those who work for a subscriber company.

However, unlike subscriber employers, non-subscribers like Home Depot are not immune from personal injury lawsuits filed by their employees.

That means that if Home Depot or one of its employees caused your injuries, you can sue the company for negligence and potentially recover more than you would have if they were a subscriber.
