In workers' compensation, the term includes the person injured and any other person to whom a claim accrues by reason of the injury or death of the former.

• A. Employer
• B. Insurer
• C. Employee
• D. Beneficiary

Answer: (C)

In workers’ compensation, the term is defined broadly to cover not only the person who is injured but also any other person to whom a claim accrues by reason of that injury or the death resulting from it. This means dependents or survivors who may receive death benefits are treated as part of the same statutory group, ensured by calling them all part of the employee’s claim context. So, the label that encompasses the injured worker and these related claimants is the employee. The other roles—employer, insurer, or a general beneficiary—refer to different aspects of the system, but they don’t define the aggregate term for who can have a claim due to the injury or death.
