My husband was sent out of state to repair a unit. While he was in hotel on out of town business, he hurt himself. Because this was not at home and he was away doing business for his company is this a workers claim? or did he have to be on job site to claim? Husband works in Idaho but was on business trip in GA

Report it to his employer so he can file a claim. If his job duty consists of out of town travel to do jobs--then it should be covered under WC.
