Light Duty Job - Know Your Rights

You have been totally disabled by the treating physician and then the doctor decides you can do a light duty job. Don’t just return to work because the employer “says” they have light duty job for you. The employer and insurer must follow a certain procedure dictated by the law as outlined in the Statute. The Statute requires the employer and insurer to file certain forms with the Board of Workers’ Compensation before you are required to return to work and try the light duty job.
