A quick definition of workers'-compensation board:

A Workers' Compensation Board is a group of people who review cases where workers have been hurt on the job. They make sure that the workers get the help they need and that the rules are followed. They can help settle disagreements about how much money the worker should get and make sure that the money is paid. They also make sure that companies have insurance to help workers who get hurt.

A more thorough explanation:

A Workers' Compensation Board is an agency that oversees cases related to workers' compensation laws and enforces the associated rules and regulations. It is also known as a Workers' Compensation Commission.

For example, if an employee is injured on the job and files a claim for workers' compensation benefits, the case will be reviewed by the Workers' Compensation Board. The Board will determine whether the employee is entitled to compensation and the amount of compensation they should receive.

Workers' Compensation Boards have limited and specific jurisdiction, meaning they only have the authority and power that has been granted to them. Their functions may include settling disputes related to compensation, supervising voluntary settlements or agreements, collecting and administering compensation funds, and regulating matters related to compensation insurance.
