With no explanation, chose the best option from "A", "B", "C" or "D". encourage employers to weigh the economic costs of compliance with safety regulations and concerns against the costs of worker’s compensation insurance. In essence, employers would chose the least expensive course of conduct, even if that were to be the intentional injury of an employee. We believe it is good policy for an employer to initiate a worker’s claim for quick and needed assistance. But, such an initiative should not be utilized as a tactic for invoking the exclusivity provisions of the Act and barring the worker from a tort claim. {17} Therefore, we hold that Worker’s receipt of compensation under the Act does not bar his tort claim against Employer for damages caused by Employer’s intentional or willful conduct.
