# clsWorkerInjuryClaim

`clsWorkerInjuryClaim` represents worker-specific injury-claim data, including optional health-insurance and interested-party fields plus validations around age, education, GED, and authorized TIN use.

## Purpose
- Store worker-level claim data maintained separately from the main claim record.
- Expose the null-handling and validation helpers used for worker injury claim maintenance.

## Context

- Namespace: `SAIF.Business.Claim.Maintenance`
- Assembly/package: `SAIF.Business.Claim.Maintenance`

## Behavioral notes

- This type is documented from its source declaration.
- The type participates in the `clsBusinessBase` inheritance path used by `SAIF.Business.Claim.Maintenance`.

## Constraints and usage notes

- Consumers should rely on the public members and BOF lifecycle patterns visible in the source file.

> **Note:** Statements marked with * were inferred from code structure, naming conventions, or
> contextual evidence where direct confirmation was not available in source artifacts. Statements
> marked with ** could not be confirmed; treat as unknown until verified.
