How do I check my compensation fund claim?
Use the BizProfile option to check if your application has been processed. Your Compensation Fund and UIF registration numbers will be displayed under the “other” section. Contact both the Compensation Fund and the UIF to submit declarations. Note that you will not receive any communication from them.
How long does it take for compensation to be paid?
From the day your compensation amount is settled, it could take up to 28 days for you to receive your payout. But in many cases, it will be much faster. You may be able to get your compensation within just a few days of your settlement being agreed with certain insurers.
How much does the compensation fund pay?
The fund will pay you 75% (three-quarters) of the difference between what you got paid and what you would’ve been paid before the injury. All medical expenses are also paid if the medical accounts are submitted to the Commissioner. You can claim compensation for temporary disability for 1 year.
How do I report an Accident with the compensation Fund?
When you go to hospital or the doctor of your own choice, you should take the duly completed, signed and dated, Employers Report of an Accident form (W. CI. 2 – Part B) from your employer, with you. The employer can also register your claim electronically and give you the claim number for you to inform your doctor.
