What is Alternative Dispute Resolution?

Either the injured worker or the employer can file a petition with the Office of Adjudication when there is a dispute over benefits.  A workers’ compensation judge schedules a hearing unless he/she deems otherwise.  You can also request an informal conference. Forms for an informal conference can be obtained from the Bureau of Workers’ Compensation Claims Information Hotline at 800-482-2383.
