[QUOTE="UPS Lifer, post: 1026801, member: 9789"] LTIs all depend on Top Down HR policy. Corporate-->Region-->District. If you miss one day of work due to an injury, it is a LTI. 2 areas on that subject.... 1) To keep you from missing work and creating an LTI especially in a short time injury situation the company would give you TAW because it does affect the Liberty Mutual insurance rates 2) If the policy is to get you back to work ASAP, Mgmt might allow you work TAW. TAW is not something that the company benefits from unless you get back to work fast. There is a rate of cost that Liberty Mutual uses per day for injury categories and charges this rate to the operation where the injury occurred. Bottom line - It affects the UPS cost. If your prognosis is going to keep you out for awhile then the company will let Worker's Comp take it's course. Dill to be blunt, you have been off awhile so you are more than likely at top cost. Why would the company incur extra cost to give you TAW? Your operation is writing you off until you get back to work. What would you "file"? The company does not have to give you TAW. One of the reasons that this is like this is that each state has it's own laws that supersede the contract. The laws are designed to protect all parties involved.
