Worker's Comp

A Real Pain in the Butt


I heard this story about a woman who broke her leg due to a worker's comp injury.  Do you know that they would not treat her medically until her worker's comp was approved?  During that time her leg set the way it had broken and they had to re-break her leg so that they could get her better.  Talk about unnecessary pain.

I know a number of employees at this one company on worker's comp who have all been put through hell.  Was it their fault that they got injured?  No... but it was their fault that they sought legal action.  So what did this company do?  Fire and lay them off.  What's a big bad company doing that for when they have billions of dollars in their pocket?  Shame on you!
