About this listen

Host Ron Wadley explains that although workers’ compensation is technically optional in Texas, churches with employees should treat it as essential protection for both staff and the ministry. He notes that workers’ comp covers medical expenses, lost wages, and other injury-related costs for church employees while also limiting a church’s exposure to lawsuits. He highlights common church workplace injuries and warns that even minor incidents can become major disputes without coverage. He recommends four safeguards: carry workers’ comp insurance, train staff on safe lifting and hazard awareness, keep walkways clear and well lit, and encourage prompt injury reporting to start claims quickly.
