Public/Legal Notices

We administer the workers' compensation system and promote a better understanding of the program's benefits by informing employees and employers of their rights and responsibilities. We administer a mediation program for disputed claims, encourage workplace safety, participate in a public awareness campaign concerning fraud, and oversee an information awareness program for educating the public on laws and regulations which define workers' compensation requirements. We ensure that companies properly provide benefits and both assess and collect penalties for noncompliance from employers and insurance companies.

We administer the Second Injury Fund and manage the innovative Drug Free Workplace Program. Medical Fee Schedule information and the MIR Registry Program are also housed within the Division. Please contact us at 1-800-332-2667 (within Tennessee) or 615-532-4812. The Workers' Compensation Division has 11 area offices throughout the state.
