What If I Was Injured While Working ‘Under the Table’?💼🩹⚖️ Getting hurt on the job is a stressful experience for anyone, but if you were injured while working under the table, you might feel an extra layer of anxiety. You may worry that because you were paid in cash, you have no rights or options for workers’ compensation benefits. In Montana, this is often not the case; state law provides protections for most workers, regardless of how they are paid. The key factor is usually whether you are legally considered an "employee," not the method of payment. If you were hurt on the job while being paid in cash, you likely have more rights than you realize. Your employment situation may feel complicated, but the core issue is simple: you were injured while working, and you need support to get better.
