What Is Workers' Compensation?
Workers' compensation is insurance that provides benefits to employees when they become ill or are injured directly because of their job.
There are various types of workplace injuries, which include:
- Accidents that occur while on the job or at a job site
- Injuries that develop over time due to repetitive work
- Illnesses contracted while at work
Death benefits are also paid to survivors if a victim's death results from an injury or disease related to work. In Ohio, employers are required to obtain workers' comp insurance for all of their employees.

“Extremely knowledgeable”
Mr Zamura was extremely knowledgeable with all phases of my Ohio Police and Fire disability claim. He followed up on all aspects and made sure I was informed and up to date with everything going on. He was prompt at returning calls and emails if needed. His application paperwork was done very thoroughly which helped the process go much easier with the OP&F review board. His staff was great also. I would recommend him to anyone looking into a possible disability claim. I am from Akron and he is in Columbus. I only made 2 trips down to see him face to face. Everything else was done electronically or by phone.- Steve H. -

“ALWAYS treated me with kindness, dignity, & respect”
If I had to go through such a situation with BWC I’m forever grateful it was with these people walking through it together...Charles & his secretary Iesha & Danielle. They ALWAYS treated me with kindness, dignity, & respect. They treated my situation as if it just as important to them as it was to me. They ALWAYS made me feel like I was their only one... trust me they have many & for good reasons. It makes my heart happy knowing there are still hardworking wonderful people out there doing what they do & fighting for the right reasons because they genuinely care. I’ll always feel fortunate to have met them. 🙏❤️🙏- Erica -
