about us

Voters Injured at Work.org is a non-profit political organization of injured workers and their families established for the purpose of protecting and enforcing California's constitutional guarantee of a fair and adequate system of compensating workers and their dependents from injury or disability from a work injury.


Voters Injured at Work.org provides a strong voice in Sacramento to help enact legislation that will rebalance the California workers' compensation system that has been "fixed" at the expense of injured workers. This Includes:


  • Access to appropriate medical care with a physician of our choice.
  • Improved benefits level.
  • Assistance in returning to gainful employment.
  • Increasing enforcement of existing laws that protect workers.
  • Improving benefit delivery and system performance.


Voters Injured at Work.org works to elect political candidates who care about the plight of California's injured workers and their families.  

Our mission statement

Voters Injured at Work (VIAW) is a statewide non-profit organization that was established in 1999 for the purpose of advocating for injured workers and their families. The primary mission of this organization is to have the State of California, the employers, and insurance companies responsible for the administration of the benefits due under the workers' compensation system fulfill the promise set out in the California constitution.   


That promise acknowledged as the “grand bargain” between those that provide their labor to California businesses, and the owners/operators of such California businesses and their insurance companies is to assure and promote and enforce a complete system of workers’ compensation, by appropriate legislation, to compensate any or all of their workers for injury or disability, and their dependents for death incurred or sustained by the said workers in the course of their employment, irrespective of the fault of any party.  Such a complete system of workers’ compensation needs to include adequate provisions for the comfort, health and safety, and general welfare of any and all workers and those dependent upon them for support to the extent of relieving from the consequences of any injury or death incurred or sustained by workers in the course of their employment, irrespective of the fault of any party;  


VIAW will also work to assure that there is safety in places of employment and that upon an injury to a worker that full provision of medical, hospital, and other remedial treatment as is required to cure and relieve from the effects of such injury and that adequate compensation for such injury is provided.   


Lastly, VIAW will work to assure that the worker’s compensation system provides for substantial justice in all cases and that such justice be rendered expeditiously, inexpensively, and without incumbrance of any character.  


The above has been declared to be the social public policy of this State and is our mission in this public endeavor to have the State of California fulfill its promise to injured voters at work.
