The Uninsured Employers Fund (UEF) pays worker's compensation benefits to employees who are injured while working for illegally uninsured Wisconsin employers.
They must complete a UEF Claim Application and provide documentation regarding their employment, injury, and related medical/treatment expenses.
The Division conducts an investigation. This includes a review of all information provided by the claimant, employer, and witnesses.
If an employer fails to provide requested information, the Division may presume the employer is an uninsured employer and assess the appropriate penalties.
The Wisconsin Worker's Compensation Division, Uninsured Employers Fund Section can be contacted by phone at (608) 266-3046 or by email at wcins@dwd.wisconsin.gov.
