When you called your workers comp carrier and explained your situation, what did they tell you?

A workers comp claim, once accepted, is not contingent on your continued employment and will survive your leaving your current employer.

And that's the last answer you're getting here. This board is not and never was intended to be a substitute for an attorney for someone who doesn't want to pay for one.

This website can only provide general legal information, not specific legal advice. If you are dissatisfied with those terms, by all means feel free to move on and collect your refund at the door.

The suggestion that you discuss it with your attorney, however, is the only reasonable answer there is.

Thanks for the correction, Tax - you are absolutely correct. Mea culpa :)

We're not the ones you have to convince. You want to see a change in the system, contact your Congressman. They can do something about it. We can't.

I have before now had employees (or the dependent/beneficiaries of deceased employees) who are able to show "proof" that the employee had a life insurance policy through the university I work for. However, on many occasions the term of the policy has expired, or the policy was moved from Carrier...

*speaks generally into the wind, without addressing anyone in particular. I am often surprised by the number of people who fail to realize that on many occasions, when an attorney fails to comply with a client's wishes, it is often because the client is instructing him to do things that are not...

How does the attorney say you should do this?

Never thought I'd be saying this when I got up this morning, but I agree with welkin.

Perhaps it was his mailbox flag which was raised.

Yes - you can report the lack of breaks to the DLSE DLSE forms (FYI - required breaks in CA are 10 minutes long, not 15) Yes. It's entirely up to the employer what time they want to schedule you for. It's not up to you.

Someone else can correct me if I'm wrong but I'm not seeing how they would go to Federal prison at all. State prison, yes, but Federal prison, no.

Because an employee who meets the definition of exempt is not paid on the basis of how many hours they work. That's what an exempt employee is exempt FROM - overtime.

That sounds very much as if it could legally qualify as an exempt position.

I didn't ask for your title. I asked for your duties. A "project coordinator" tells me nothing as not every employer titles their positions the same way.

What Zigner said.

And what are the job duties of your primary position?
