Establishing Liability
Texas is unique because many employers opt out of the workers compensation system, making them nonsubscribers. Nonsubscriber employers can be sued directly for negligence and lose several key defenses, including contributory negligence and assumption of risk. Even when an employer carries workers compensation, injured workers can pursue third party claims against equipment manufacturers, subcontractors, and property owners whose negligence contributed to the injury.
Relevant Texas Law
Texas Labor Code Chapter 406 allows employers to elect whether to carry workers compensation insurance, making Texas one of the few states with this opt out provision. Nonsubscriber employers are subject to common law negligence suits under Texas Labor Code Section 406.033, which removes the defenses of contributory negligence, assumption of risk, and fellow servant doctrine. Third party liability claims are preserved under Texas Labor Code Chapter 417 even for employees receiving workers compensation benefits.
