Claim it before someone else doesWork in Daly City looks different depending on which block you're standing on. Some people spend their shifts stocking shelves along Mission Street, while others drive deliveries up John Daly Boulevard or merge onto I-280 in a company van. When a shift ends with an injury, the path forward isn't always obvious. California workers' compensation typically covers you regardless of who was at fault, and it is usually your only claim against your employer. But if someone outside your employer caused the harm — a subcontractor on a job site, a property owner who ignored a hazard, the manufacturer of a defective tool, or another driver who hit you while you were on the clock — a separate injury claim may exist alongside workers' comp. Daly City recorded 257 injury collisions in 2025, and some of those involved people who were simply doing their jobs. Our team can help you sort out which claims apply to you.
Workers' compensation is usually your only remedy against your employer, but it does not cover pain and suffering. We check whether a negligent third party — a subcontractor, property owner, equipment maker, or another driver — opens a separate claim.
California asks you to report a work injury to your employer within 30 days, and a third-party claim generally must be filed within two years. Getting started early helps you keep both windows open.
