- Q. Can my employer make me write book reports on safety as light duty work for a workers comp claim
- A: A case came out on this VERY recently that suggests the answer is no, or at least that they may still have to pay you TTD. I have not written anything on that case yet, but this is the closest thing I have on my site: http://www.lawrencelaws.com/faqs/do-i-have-to-go-back-to-work-when-the-insurance-company-tells-me-to/. I will probably write an article on that case in the near future.
If you want to fight this, get a good Comp lawyer in your area and stand up for your rights. Good luck!
- Q. If I'm on workers compensation can I still work. I'm a sales rep for cable company and was wondering??
- A: If you want to work, you can. You just won't get TTD and that will start the statute of limitation running. Check this out for more information: http://www.lawrencelaws.com/faqs/do-i-have-to-go-back-to-work-when-the-insurance-company-tells-me-to/
- Q. My dad was hurt on the job over 20 years ago. A WC doc said he could return to work!! They are terminating his pay! ??
- A: There's not really a question being posed here, and there's not enough detail to give you any kind of answer. A WC doc said he could return to work yesterday, or 20 years ago?
