[QUOTE="iamupser, post: 825206, member: 30252"] I think alot of our injuries could be books, or websites... Your not the Lone Ranger, but the only way we can effectively change UPS for the greater good of its employees is to have a unified voice and use every communication tool available to make people listen. If we complain amongst ourselves, nothing will change, if word starts getting out to the general public, UPS doesn't like that as much... We need to protest our politicians to make meaningful changes in laws and regulations, for example worker comp laws basically shield companies from meaningful liability and were enacted in the early 1900's. It protects large corporations. In my case, the clinic got to look like the "bad guy", usually when people are injured their blood pressure naturally rises, however in my case I have hypertension and diesel exhaust exacerbates it. Most others I have spoken to were given the opportunity to come back the next day to have it re-evaluated. If I had been given that opportunity, all would have been fine. The Physician Assistant thought I would be "off" for the DOT card and not get "comp" for the hernia, but our contract gives us a year to get our DOT back if that happens. Hope everything works out for you... [/QUOTE]
