Walk It Through: The Ladder Fall
Written notice in 30 days, weekly pay for total disability, and two years to 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. Extended compensation, the new weekly minimum, and permanent partial disability are not worked through here.
A practice walkthrough, not a prediction of how any real one will go. Legal information, not legal advice.
