Virginia Workers’ Compensation Commission | 2015 Annual Report

Videoconferencing has proven to be effective within the courtroom by saving
time for attorneys and judges while cutting costs of the entire judicial process. The
Commission began a pilot project in 2015 with the installation of videoconferencing
equipment in its Richmond headquarters with plans for expansion to the Manassas
and Lebanon offices.

In 2015 the Commission offered a completely paperless filing option
for attorneys using our WebFile system to further enhance customer
service. By eliminating the need to send document hard copies to
opposing parties, going Paperless is both cost-effective and
environmentally friendly. The Paperless feature provides efficient
and secure receipt of Commission notifications all while being
available for use from a computer at any time.
