Investigator

US-OR-Bend/Hybrid

Digital images consist of millions of tiny dots called pixels. The more pixels you have, the more clearly you can see the picture. The same is true of workers’ compensation claims. The more information we can gather, the better decisions we can make.

SAIF investigators are like megapixel cameras, documenting facts and validating events to create a more accurate picture so that injured workers can get the help they need. As an investigator, you’ll interview people from all walks of life, including injured workers and their employers, coworkers, witnesses, and neighbors. You’ll search for clues in the field and online, and communicate your findings through clearly written, timely reports and occasional live testimony. Flexibility, organization, and time management are important parts of the investigator’s job.
