The Workers’ Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) plays a crucial role in the California workers’ comp system, ensuring that injured workers receive the benefits they deserve when disputes arise. If you’re facing denied benefits, delays in medical treatment, or issues with your settlement, understanding the WCAB process is essential.
