What Are Non-Subscribers?

In Texas, not every employer has to have typical workers’ compensation insurance. Employers that choose not to carry workers’ compensation are “non-subscribers.”  There are a number of non-subscribers employers in Texas, including Walmart.

A non-subscriber typically does not provide as much compensation for work injuries as a subscriber, but they also give up several protections available to subscribers.  Non-subscribers with over five employees in Texas must report illnesses or injuries.  The injury must have cost you at least one day of work. Otherwise, the employer does not have to report it. 

What Happens If You Get Injured While Working at Walmart in Texas?

If you suffer an injury while working for a non-subscriber like Walmart, you have two options:

1. First, if you can prove that the negligence of your employer or one of its employees caused your injury, you can file a personal injury claim against the employer.  This will allow you to seek both economic damages, such as lost wages and medical expenses and noneconomic damages, such as pain and suffering.
2. Second, you can file a claim through Walmart’s workers’ comp policy.

Filing a Personal Injury Claim

At Armstrong Lee & Baker LLP, we fight for injured workers—even against powerful companies like Walmart.

If you were injured while working at Walmart and can prove negligence, you may have the right to file a lawsuit for damages, including medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Our aggressive Texas attorneys have recovered millions of dollars for injured workers, and we are prepared to take your case to trial if necessary.

Does Walmart Have Workers’ Compensation in Texas?

Yes, Walmart does provide workers’ compensation coverage for its employees. Walmart is self-insured, meaning they handle workers’ comp claims internally rather than relying on external insurance providers. They have their own dedicated administrator for managing workers’ compensation claims, which is a company known as Claims Management, Inc (CMI). This ensures that Walmart employees have access to the necessary support and benefits in case of work-related injuries or illnesses.

You must file a Walmart workers’ comp claim as soon as possible to receive compensation under their plan. If they deny your claim, we can help you appeal the decision.

Who Handles Workers’ Compensation Insurance Claims for Walmart?

If you suffered an injury at Walmart, you would have to file a workers’ compensation Walmart claim since they are self-insured.  Under the Walmart workers’ compensation plan, you likely will not recover as much as in a typical program.  However, you should be able to recover a reasonable amount, and you should review Walmart’s most recently revised plan.

When Can You File a Walmart Workers’ Comp Claim in Texas?
