What is the name of your state? UT
I understand that WC is entitled to your medical records. I also understand that they receive a "summary" following each doctor visit. Does the law allow the patient to also receive all summaries including those from therapists?
If the law does allow for the...
I will call the Utah Labor Commission again when I know for certain who to speak with. Yesterday, after you had given me the tip of the UIC, I looked up the phone number, called them, and they answered as the Labor Commission. When I had sent an email to the LC a few weeks back they said that...
Thanks for your reply cbg.
I have had several local attorneys’ tell me that UT only has and abides by the Federal Child Labor Law.
I will be more specific. Can anyone tell me if it is considered illegal for a child under 18 to operate a tire-changing machine in any State?

I have been told that Utah does not have their own Child Labor Laws and only hold to the Federal Child Labor Laws.
How do I go about finding which States also have their own Child Labor Laws and what those laws are?
I have re thought this question and what I should have asked was "Does the LAW permit an employer to have any say so to the amount of benefit that WC provides?
I do believe that the employer does care. I just don't see how he can be so neglectful not to train an employee to use a machine...
WOW there are some really great people here! Thanks for all the well wishes; I have discovered that the support from others, even strangers, really helps.
D.B Cooper no apologies needed I really DID laugh at being called a busy body. I remember my mom calling a neighbor that when I was young...
LOL Thank You! I needed a good laugh :) (busy body)
Just because you asked, I will tell you why the boss doesn't ask for my son when he calls. He feels guilty for being negligent in his training procedures and thus causing my 16-year-old son to have a TBI (traumatic brain injury) that will...
Oh my HECK! We say that quite a bit here in UT.
I am sorry to cause so much trouble over a Workman's Comp question. Since this forum is for people who are having issues with WC I thought that we might have some expert opinions from others who have walked this path. I will do my best to steer...

Each month (so far) on the anniversary date my sons boss calls to check his "progress". That date is approaching and I no more want to talk to him then step and sharp glass barefooted. Is it in the best interest of my son the be nice?
It is my understanding...

In another post here I found this information. The question was on settlement and the answer given went something like this.. "This depends ENTIRELY on the degree of permanent impairment you are left with (if any) and what your State's WC reg's dictate."
My...
Thanks again Paula,
I would rather buy you lunch so that we could discuss this in person instead over a public forum. LOL oh well, maybe this can benefit other's as well.
"The employee was seriously injured, almost killed, at work because the employer failed to train the employee or even warn...
Thanks for reply Paula
Yes OSHA did come to the place of employment and botched the investigation. Let's just say that they did site the employer for lack of training, which was a fine of about 2000.00 knocked down to 1200.00 what an insult. They missed several other key pieces of evidence...

This is my first post here.
I have been told a small amount about how Worker's Comp. works but there's some confusing information that I have rec'd. Here goes...
Worker's comp must pay for medical expenses etc. but you cannot sue the employer not matter what...
