DES MOINES, IOWA (July 22, 2019) — Today, the Iowa Division of Workers’ Compensation launched a web-based filing-system for attorneys, workers, employers, and insurers. The new Workers’ Compensation Electronic System (WCES) will allow the Division to transition from paper filing to electronic filing.
“WCES will bring the Iowa work comp system into the 21st century,” said Commissioner Joseph Cortese II, Iowa Workers’ Compensation. “The new system will be easier to access for Iowans. Electronic filing will also help the agency operate more efficiently.”
Key features of the new system include:
- Web-based access for users
- Individual user accounts
- 24-hour e-filing capability
- Email notifications of agency decisions and filings
