About The Position

Stinker is hiring a part-time Workers’ Compensation Coordinator to coordinate its workers’ compensation program from initial injury reporting through claim resolution and return to work. The coordinator serves as a key point of contact for employees, managers, insurance partners, medical providers, and internal teams. The role helps ensure injuries are reported promptly, documentation is complete, communication remains on track, and employees receive clear guidance throughout the claims process. The position also supports injury-prevention efforts by identifying trends and coordinates modified-duty assignments and return-to-work opportunities that balance employee needs with operational requirements. When workers’ compensation workload allows, the coordinator supports recruiting, onboarding, employee records, People team projects, employee communications, and other HR initiatives. This is a primarily office-based, part-time role in Boise, Idaho, with occasional travel based on business needs. Work is primarily performed in a temperature-controlled office and may involve extended periods at a desk or computer. The corporate office is dog-friendly.
