Which of the following is necessary for employees to receive TTD benefits?

To qualify for Temporary Total Disability (TTD) benefits under Minnesota Workers' Compensation laws, it is essential for employees to report their injury in a timely manner, specifically within 24 hours. This prompt reporting is critical as it initiates the claims process and allows employers to take appropriate action concerning the workplace injury, including ensuring that necessary medical care is provided. Timely reporting also helps prevent disputes about the date of injury and establishes a clear timeline that can facilitate benefit calculations.

While there are various aspects of the claims process such as medical documentation and ongoing communication between the employee and employer, the initial step of reporting the injury promptly is foundational. It ensures that employees receive the support and benefits they are entitled to in a timely manner, enabling them to focus on their recovery without undue delay stemming from procedural issues.
