About Me

Never Be Afraid to File for Worker's Compensation

Working in IT, I never expected to become hurt on the job. One day at work, the chair I was sitting on broke. I ended up falling to the floor and hurting my back. I woke up the next day in excruciating pain, and I ended up needing back surgery. I was afraid to file for workers' compensation, because I did not want to get on my employer's "bad side". I decided to speak to an attorney who handled my case for me, and he told me it was illegal for my employer to hold my claim against me in the future in any way. I created this blog to share my experience and let everyone know that filing a worker's compensation claim is important if they become injured at work. You cannot be fired for filing. It saved me financially, and I am now back at work full-time!
