In addition, there are specific groups of workers who are generally not covered under workers’ compensation. These groups include: 1) residential domestic workers; 2) independent contractors; 3) workers employed only on a casual basis to do work unconnected with an employer’s business; and 4) railroad workers, maritime workers, and Federal employees (all of which are covered under separate State or Federal laws).

If you still have questions as to whether you may be entitled to workers’ compensation benefits, you can contact an attorney who handles these cases or the North Carolina Bar Association.
