I agree, but I'm torn because I still have another 16 months till I can get my pension so I have to still work there unless I can get early retirement out of this also.
The safety coordinator is I guess.
Yes but I was told by another friend who is an expert lol, that wc doesn't pay your full salary, maybe half
don't guess, call and make certain. hell, you may be off work 16 months healing up
Agree, you never know. Had a similar slip on wet floor at work, they told me to file report regardless of injury reported. Good luck Clay.
Good advice in this thread. Hire a legal eagle and protect yourself. Never know how long you'll be down, and you want to be sure your assets are covered.
I'm not too familiar with Worker's Comp, but CHenry's previous hospitalization occurrence wasn't from an accident.

The HR manager spoke to me earlier and WC pays .75 of salary and hold out nothing so it's near the same net pay. They assured me that ODOT will help me out 100% regardless of anything else, BUT, I have spoken to an attorney and she sounded hi octain and excited to do it without a dime unless I received a judgement in the end. She sounded very nice to me but like some one I could easily hate if I were on opposite sides of the table from her lol...perfect!

Yes, my previous extended Illness was last Aug thru Nov and I exhausted all 600ish hours of PTO that I had.
It was an illness that had nothing to do with work.
