Key features of Arizona's system:
- ✓ Industrial Commission administers all claims
- ✓ No direct lawsuit against employer (exclusive remedy)
- ✓ Structured settlement (compromise and release) requires AIC approval
The Arizona Industrial Commission (AIC) administers workers' compensation in Arizona. Arizona is a no-fault system covering all work-related injuries and diseases. Employers must carry coverage through a private insurer or self-insure. Arizona uses the AMA Guides for permanent impairment ratings and has specific scheduled-injury benefits for extremity losses. Claims must be filed within one year of the injury date.

Average medical costs
Work-related motor vehicle accidents — delivery drivers, truckers, sales representatives, and construction equipment operators — produce some of the highest-value workers' compensation claims because injuries often involve multiple body parts and may include head and spinal trauma. When the at-fault driver was a third party (not your employer), you may pursue both a workers' comp claim and a separate personal injury lawsuit, potentially recovering amounts that exceed workers' comp limits. Commercial vehicle accidents involving large trucks are governed by FMCSA regulations; violations of hours-of-service rules or maintenance standards can support significant third-party liability. Uninsured motorist (UM) coverage on the employer's commercial auto policy may also be available.
