sick days

Injured at work, what should I do?

 

Just wanted to know because I got injured at work.  If it’s a good idea to take or go out for vacation? Or stay and get sick days? And what will happen when I do take my Vacation?

Answer:  DO NOT take vacation or sick time.  If you need to be off work because of a job injury, make sure you GO TO THE DOCTOR and file a Workers’ Comp claim.  Have your doctor write to note that you need to be off work x number of days.  Make WC pay for your days off.  You’ll only get 75% of your pay, but you should NOT have to dig into sick time or vacation time to do it.
