[QUOTE="feederdude, post: 604772, member: 665"] The company must accept the right to see a Doctor of your own choosing, they do however have the right to send you to their Doctor at the time of report. What I'm saying is #1). File the right to see a Dr. of your own choice form. 2). Then report the injury/incident. If you don't, I have seen employees hung out to dry for months or years, some come back, some don't. UPS has the attitude of not letting an employee set an example especially in regards to the safety/injury process. The injury frequency numbers are more important to the company than the injured person. I used to handle the process for the company, and then went through the process as an injured employee.....don't be fooled by thinking you can force them, or change the course the safety process takes. This is pushed from corporate, to the Regions, and then the districts. I do however think that Corporate has good intentions in regards to employee safety, but they are sooo far removed from operations that by the time the districts impliment the guidelines they aren't employee friendly. Keep your Ducks in a row when dealing with them. They keep 6135's (attendance records) on each employee, as well as injury/accident history on them for future discussions. My main point is to keep one step ahead of them in documentation. Fdude [/QUOTE]
