Cameron LNG Workers' Comp Claims: What Southwest Louisiana Employees Should Know
Cameron LNG’s plant runs massive volumes of liquefied natural gas through cryogenic and high-pressure systems, with a large mixed workforce of direct hires, contractors, and turnaround crews. That mix can complicate a claim. Insurers sometimes try to shift blame between the plant operator, a contractor, and a subcontractor to avoid paying benefits.
Workers’ Compensation, LLC focuses exclusively on Louisiana workers’ comp law, including complex industrial and petrochemical plant claims. We know how to sort out who’s responsible for your benefits so a jurisdictional dispute doesn’t delay your care.
- You may be covered even if you work for a contractor or subcontractor on-site, not Cameron LNG directly.
- It doesn't matter if the injury was your fault or your employer's. You're covered no matter what.
- Filing a workers' comp claim is not the same as suing your employer.
- It's illegal for your employer to retaliate against you for filing.

Workers' Comp FAQs for Cameron LNG Plant Employees
I work for a contractor at Cameron LNG, not Cameron LNG itself. Am I still covered?
In most cases, yes. Louisiana workers’ comp generally covers contractor and subcontractor employees injured on a job site, though determining which company’s insurance applies can get complicated. We sort out coverage so you’re not caught between employers.
I was hurt during a turnaround while working out-of-town crews. Does that change anything?
Out-of-parish and traveling crews are still covered under Louisiana law for on-site injuries. Per diem, travel status, or being from out of state does not disqualify you from benefits. As long as you’re injured working for a Louisiana company, you’re covered under Louisiana workers’ comp laws.
I was exposed to a chemical or gas release but don't have visible injuries. Can I still file?
Yes. Exposure incidents can cause internal or delayed injuries that aren’t immediately visible. Get evaluated and documented as soon as possible, and don’t wait to report the incident.
Do I have to see the company doctor?
Louisiana law gives you the right to choose your own treating physician in your specialty of choice. You are not required to rely solely on a doctor selected by your employer, the plant operator, or their insurer.
