The Three Best Workers Compensation Apps
Last week, I wrote two articles on any Workers Compensation apps that were in the Google Play store. As promised, I have tried a few out to see if any actually worked and if any would be helpful.

The one that actually looked to be a timesaver and worked well was Sedgwick’s ViaOne Express. Even though there have been connections and leave reporting issues, it is one of the better ones on the Play store. The app received 3.5 stars out of 5. Even though the score could have been better, it is slim pickings on the Play store website for WC apps.
Online claims access is always critical in controlling Workers Comp costs. The ability to have the injured employee update their return to work date is a nice feature. If there are better apps that are not on Google Play, the provider can always upload it to the Play store. A description of the Sedgwick app is below.
