Texas is the only state that does not require private employers to carry workers’ compensation insurance.
However, Walmart has chosen to be self-insured, which means they do provide workers’ compensation coverage—but on their own terms.
In North Texas, Walmart’s self-insured status means your claim won’t go through the Texas Department of Insurance, Division of Workers’ Compensation (TDI-DWC) in the same way it might with a traditional insurer. This can complicate your case.
Injuries at Walmart warehouses in Dallas and throughout North Texas can leave workers with mounting medical bills and no clear path to recovery—especially when Walmart operates as a non-subscriber. Sandoval & Armstrong are experienced in representing warehouse employees like you, and will fight to secure the compensation you need to heal and move forward.
What Should You Do After a Work Injury at Walmart?
If you’ve been injured at Walmart, take these steps immediately:
- Report the injury to your supervisor as soon as possible
- Request medical attention and get it in writing
- Keep records of every conversation, form, and treatment
- Do not sign anything without reviewing it with a lawyer
- Contact Sandoval Armstrong for a free case evaluation
