Knowledge check: HR/Workers’ Compensation:Answer

Answer: Yes. Though Stephen had not yet begun work for the day, his injuries occurred on company property (the parking lot). Every state’s laws are different, but employers are required to provide a safe working environment for their employees. If an employee falls on the way to or from work in a company’s parking lot, the employee is eligible for workers’ compensation.
