Workers’ Compensation: An Athletes Right, Just Like Any Other Union Worker
As a professional or collegiate athlete, you have the right to recover workers’ compensation benefits when injured on the job. While all states offer some level of protection for injured workers, few provide the progressive compensation and medical benefits that Minnesota does for both the professional and collegiate athlete.
✅ Wage Loss if you cannot return to work
✅ Coverage for medical expenses
✅ Payments for your lost earning capacity if you make less in your new job
✅ Retraining Benefits to get a new job or finish your education
✅ Potential eligibility to file in multiple jurisdictions
Many athletes don’t realize they may have the right to file in more than one state, depending on where they played, trained, or signed their contract. No matter who you played for, we have the experience to help you navigate your options, maximize your benefits and get you in touch with those who can help you the most.
