[QUOTE="Been In Brown Too Long, post: 3771731, member: 32249"] Are you saying he blew his back out with one week (40 hours) to go until he qualified for retirement? If so, that's really depressing. Sorry to hear that... That being said, I don't think "cashing in" sick days count as time worked. I believe they only count as time worked when used during a normal stretch of work. I know I'd tell my doctor to release me to full duty, no restrictions, grin and bear it, and get through that last week, using some of those sick days for sure. I had a major back injury with 10 years to go, missed a lot of time, but told doctor that whatever you do, I go back to work with no restrictions. I was collecting my retirement come hell or high water! She did, I babied my back through 11 more years and retired in April. I gotta think it can be faked for 19 hours. I also find it hard to believe the union would hold back retirement for 19 hours of contributions. Is this not an on job injury? Because the company still makes pension contributions while of on workers compensation. I'd be contacting the local union hall for sure, or the Conference that handles his pension. [/QUOTE]
