So you got hurt at work and the insurance company that your employer uses for Workers' Compensation coverage won't compensate you for your injuries and is making your life a living hell and treating you like a piece of garbage!? Is it illegal? You bet it is? But this is a familiar problem that occurs daily in the United States to thousands of productive workers.Injured On The Job is the highly acclaimed 1 hour television show that exposes the massive and uncontrolled fraud and corruption routinely perpetrated by Workers' Compensation insurance companies around the United States every day. The insurance industry has a financial and legislative stranglehold on the social safety net that is supposedly there to protect us in case we are injured on the job. Those in government whose job is to protect us from these vicious corporate predators simply don't, and the working man suffers the indignities and hardships of a broken system needlessly, while these vicious corporate predators are laughing all the way to the bank! Host Thurman Martin Jr. and Producer Sam Gold interview a wide variety of guests to bring these ever so important issues to the forefront of daily conversation. As we are able, we also interview those who are injured at work and show how dysfunctional the systems are around the United States. This is a 58:30 TRT show, now produced at Epicenter Media Arts by the non-profit National Organization of Injured Workers Inc., a California based national injured worker advocacy organization whose goal is to inform, educate and empower the occupationally injured around the country.. Although it's subject matter sometimes deals with the California Workers Compensation system, the information it offers is appropriate for all states as this is a national problem.
