[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 580465, member: 484"] Normally, you would think that an injury off the clock would not be a workers comp claim. We had a driver that punched out, went home, only to realize that he had left his cell phone in the truck. Went back to the center, hopped across the belt, got his heal caught in the grating, and went down on the floor. Shattered his kneecap. It was ruled workers comp. But that is all a side issue, and does nothing but confuse what is actually the issue. 1 You are in an active work area. Until you are punched on the clock, you are not to be in an active work area. You are to stay in the common or break areas and wait for your start time. 2 When you are in the active work area, you are in the way of the preload. Yeah, Ive heard all the BS on this one, but you are in the way. 3 And this is the biggie, you are falsifying your time card. So far, I have yet to see someone file on this, but it is coming. You are doing what you normally get paid to do, but yet you have not started. Its the same as if a sup took 45 minutes off the end of your day. So please, quit with all the "I dont see anything wrong with what I do" crap. Its wrong, dont do it. d [/QUOTE]
