Have a friend who was hurt on the job. The doc said she MAY be out as long as 6 weeks. Her employer is telling her she'll have to exhaust all her sick and vacation time then switch to STD. Now that sounds normal had she been hurt on her OWN time. But why should she use any of her own resources when it was a job related incident?
I think rules on this sort of thing vary by state. It seems most states' labor dept. have some sort of help site up. Which state are you in?
