Divisions and Departments |

The Industrial Commission is split into four divisions: Compensation,
Rehabilitation, Adjudication, and Crime Victims.
The Compensation Division of the Industrial Commission is made up of
Administration, Fiscal, Human Resources,
Information Technology, Employer Compliance, and
Benefits Administration. This section of the annual report will focus on
Employer Compliance, Benefits Administration, and Fiscal.
The Idaho Industrial Commission offers rehabilitation
services for injured workers. Employees are the state’s greatest
business asset. It is essential to the fiscal health of the state to quickly
return injured workers to the labor force.
The Idaho Industrial Commission is an administrative court, and through
the Adjudication Division, it provides decisions in workers’ compensation
disputes between workers and employers. The Commission is also the upper
level reviewing authority for unemployment insurance decisions issued by the
Idaho Department of Commerce & Labor.
The Idaho
Crime
Victims Compensation Program was established in 1986 to provide
assistance to crime victims who suffer personal injuries. Since it was
established, the Program has served over 21,000 victims of crime in Idaho
without relying on a single tax dollar. |
