A South Carolina Request for Hearing is a legal document that is used to initiate a hearing with the South Carolina Workers' Compensation Commission. This form is used to request that the Commission reviews a dispute between an employer and an employee, regarding a workers’ compensation claim. The Request for Hearing can be filed by either the employer or the employee. There are two types of South Carolina Request for Hearing: a Form 50 for Injury or Occupational Disease and a Form 51 for Death Benefits. The Form 50 is used to request a hearing for injury or occupational disease benefits, while the Form 51 is used to request a hearing for death benefits. Both forms require that the claimant provide detailed information about the claim, including the date of injury or death, the employer, the type of injury, and the amount of compensation requested.
