Most Alaskan employees and employers are covered under the Act. Employers who employ one or more workers must have workers' compensation insurance. An employer must buy the insurance from a licensed insurance company or be self-insured. Your employer cannot require you to pay any part of the insurance premium.

The compensation a worker is paid depends on the nature of the injury and the future prognosis. Typically, workers' compensation disability benefits pay workers 80 percent of their spendable weekly wage. Spendable weekly wage is equal to your take-home pay, or your gross pay minus all payroll tax deductions.
