[QUOTE="Inthegame, post: 1047597, member: 37112"] Those pages are there because that is the law. In the transportation field, Federal Motor Carrier law that effects employment is reiterated in union contracts. The union doesn't "want to protect substance abuse" but wants an employee to get a chance to correct mistakes without losing their job. Injuries are important, but the advice given by Upstate is accurate. If an injury occurs on the job and is deemed so, greater benefits exist for employees and therefore greater costs on the employer. That's why UPS puts so many roadblocks in the way. I don't know what state you live in but many states that haven't been hijacked by tea baggers have work comp laws that mandate employers continue benefits for bonafide on the job injuries, almost always superior benny's than you'd get for a disability claim. Our work comp pays benny's for a year, vacation accrues, holidays are paid. I must be missing something from your story. [/QUOTE]
