Percy is a veterinarian assistant who works with Terry, a large animal veterinarian specializing in farm animals. One day Percy was helping Terry examine cattle. Without warning a bull bucked and knocked Percy down causing him to hit his head. After going to the doctor, Percy was diagnosed with a concussion and needed to take time off from work to recover.
Thankfully Terry worked with his insurance agent when he started his veterinary practice and has a tailored insurance policy including workers compensation. His policy covered Percy’s doctor bills and lost wages while he recovered.
Without workers compensation insurance, Terry would have been responsible for the costs out of pocket, potentially causing financial strain on his business.
