Warning! If your Employer says this after your work injury ... watch out!

[@rahvisionproductionz2929]

Unfortunately it happen to me as we speak, my job fired me due to a shoulder injury no fault of my own, an used every excuse to fire me on light duty " I'm not wearing my boots) ( I'm taking too many times off) reason: pain.

One should always report it and if you have a witness try to get a written statement. The company doesn’t care . The employee is the only loser In the long run . Don’t be intimidated. File it .’

They didn’t even approach to me and I went to doctor and he reported then and then the drama came. I just quit.

What happens if the employer says they dont remember me calling and reporting my fall?! Then they tell me that they send employee to their doctors to get checked and that a accident report needs to be done! I never had this problem before so i didnt know about accident report and didnt know i had to go to their drs. When i called to report that i fell they said omg please becareful take as long as you need to recover! So i did. Because thats what my employer said to do! I was so clueless about workmens comp and all the rules. Now they have fired me because of non communications with them to let them know how i was doing!! This happen about a year ago no work im on social security 😢its been hard financially

I got injured at work.reported to supervisor next day after being fully awared of my injured he didn't take any note nor report. Next week I reported it again he did a report. And I got a warning and they took my bonus away for late report policy. I told them I reported it next day and supervisor didn't do his job. What can I do?

[@KaplanMorrellLaw]

As always it depends. In some jurisdictions the loss of the bonus might be viewed as retaliatory so you should consult an attorney on it.

[@lizulibarri2945]

My employer witnessed my fall!! Then they fired me!

[@Tampertownmediagroup]

Can you do a video of how companies have the ability to turn people that live around claimants can actually cause claimants distress by constant agitations and stalking

[@KaplanMorrellLaw]

Are you talking about surveillance? I should do a video about that!

[@Tampertownmediagroup]

@@KaplanMorrellLaw I would think so. Because I’m my opinion it seems they can gather help from the people that live around you “claimant”. I’m just speaking on personal experience. I’ve had way too many people throughout this entire duration looming over my home in many different ways.

What about if my new employer put in the offer letter the 1st of the month I'd be covered under their insurance plan and lo and behold were 15 days into the month and the employer is still dragging their feet with enrollment and all of a sudden i get hurt outside of work?.

[@Joyuswealthbiz13]

Do you handle case in Houston?

[@KaplanMorrellLaw]

Hi Joyus, we only handle cases in Colorado, but you can call the Division of Workers Compensation of the State of Texas and ask for a list of lawyers that could help you. Thank you for watching our videos!

[@LoveuLongtime]

They didn't report it and sd i left work, and told me to take a couple days off

[@TMH792]

I was told to use my PTO and vacation time to rest. I had no clue about workmans comp. I called my higher up boss and she immediately said call this number right now. I lost 8 weeks of lost wages bc she didn’t report it. It’s 6 months later and I’m still in pain. This system is a nightmare!! I also immediately called an attorney bc things were not adding up. People are so shady!! Did you call an attorney?

[@StationWagonLiving]

They made me sign a "no report" did they trick me?

[@benalexender3046]

Thanks ❤

Look out for yourself. I am the most important person (thing) in the world.
