[QUOTE="Bad Gas!, post: 394077, member: 14062"] Although injuries should be reported right away, you don't always know if you can just sleep it off and rest a couple of days.I know plenty of over 40-50 year old drivers that have back-knee issues and they report heathy for duty to make some money-pay the bills..But that knee-back that's acked for some time could pull,pop, bend, brake and you are a work comp injury.If you show up good to go for work and your progressive injury takes you out...it's work comp...This is law in some states.. On another issue,mgt will always hassle you on safty violations.But according to the contract they are not allowed to hasle you over a work comp injury and could be sued or grieved for it....They should know when to stop and say "I hope you get better soon with the right treatment I had a clear MRI this year.Then also a second MRI with a dye agent (contrast MRI) showed a torn meniscus...If you have pain you know your not making it up..You just want to get it fixed and back to work..
