In most cases, you cannot sue your employer for a work-related injury in Colorado. Workers’ Compensation laws protect employers from lawsuits by making Workers’ Compensation benefits the exclusive remedy for injured employees.

However, there are rare exceptions, such as when an employer willfully violates safety regulations or intentionally causes harm. If a third party, like another driver, contributed to the accident, you may file a**third party personal injury claim** against them while still accepting Workers’ Compensation benefits.
