[QUOTE="UnconTROLLed, post: 844822, member: 18708"] My understanding is that if you hurt yourself on-the-job, and agree not to report it and "work through it light duty", the company will find work for that person. We had one kid who tore his quadracep and continued working "light duty". We had a guy with a hernia who was not given light duty. One was a proven work related injury, the other not so much. If you hurt yourself and file an injury report with Liberty Mutual and the company has any doubt whatsoever that it was not work-related (and can frame it that way) the company will give you the boot tell you not to come back and to follow up with the co doctor when you are ready to return. So basically go on temp disability. [/QUOTE]
