Walk It Through: The Ladder Fall
Objective medical findings, 30 days to tell, and no firing over a claim.
A warehouse worker falls from a ladder on shift and hurts a shoulder, and a supervisor says the fall was the worker's own fault.
Two things a person in this spot might do. Picking one shows what the law says about it.
One worker and one employer. Benefit amounts, late payment penalties, and expert medical advisors are not worked through here.
A practice walkthrough, not a prediction of how any real one will go. Legal information, not legal advice.
