    Federal workers' compensation program the subject of House ...

    In recent workers' compensation law news, Rep. Tim Walberg (R-MI), Chair of the Workforce Protection Subcommittee, recently held a hearing on Capitol Hill to examine the current state of the federal workers' compensation program and to discuss whether changes to the program were needed.

    While federal employees are legally prohibited from suing the federal government for their work-related injuries, they do have access to a rather generous system of work comp benefits to help cover lost wages, medical expenses and other costs.

    My brother getting fired at work for injured back?

    My older brother was working with me @ the same restaurant. He called in sick for a minor back injuring, it wasnt something brutal..he just needed some rest days...he gots 2 jobs, so u kno sometimes u need to rest. He calls them and tells them hes ready to work, but they tell them he needed a doctor's note for approval. Its hard getting a doctor's note without being a patient and without insurance. It took a while to get that...as he still communicated


    easy one.the one with the gold makes the rules.


    A doctors note doesn't forgive absences. That ended when you got out of school. Surgery and a broken leg have FMLA protection for 12 weeks but they could have fired the guy with the broken leg after 12 weeks when he didn't return.

    UF's Brissett back at work, ready for year two

    Regardless of whether he leads the Gators to a national championship one day or never plays another game, few players in Florida football history — if any at all — can say they faced a more intense introduction than Jacoby Brissett.

    Brissett will always remember Oct. 8, 2011.

    Florida at No. 1-ranked LSU. Gators starting quarterback John Brantley on the sideline wearing a protective boot protecting his injured ankle. More than 93,000 people in Death Valley — and not many of them wanting to see you do well.

    Was Brissett, a few months out of Palm Beach Dwyer High and inactive in the season’s first five games, rattled with nerves that day in Baton Rouge?

    “No, far from it. I was excited more than anything to be able to say that in my first game I played against the No. 1 team in the country, LSU, at Death Valley,’’ Brissett said with a big grin recently. “Not a lot of people can say that as a (true) freshman.
