The Workers' Advisor Office (WAO) helps workers understand the workers’ compensation system. The WAO is independent of the WSCC, and provides a confidential outside-opinion.

The Workers' Advisor helps by:    

• Getting information for you from the WSCC;
• Talking to the WSCC about your claim;
• Explaining WSCC processes and decisions;
• Determining if you need more information to support your case;
• Reviewing file evidence;
• Helping to prepare and present your case to reviews and appeals; and
• Helping you, and your family, find community services that you might need.
