Under the Work Injury Compensation Act (WICA), an employer is liable to compensate an employee for:
due to injuries or occupational diseases that happen at work or as a result of work.
without having to file a civil suit under common law.
It is a low-cost and quicker alternative to common law for settling compensation claims.
