We received another question the other day. Someone had been injured on the job. They got surgery on one of their legs and they got returned back to work. And when they got returned back to work they were subsequently fired at work. And then, they're still getting medical care. And so it looks like they're gonna need another surgery down the road or at least that's what they're talking about. And so, the question is, "Do they qualify for income benefits?" And the answer is, "It depends." The question is, "How did they get fired?" Was this something that they got fired because they weren't moving fast enough because of their injury? If it's something related to their injury, then the argument is, yes, they can get income benefits. It may be a fight may have to go to a hearing etc. However, If they smart it all or they said, "I'm not gonna do that." And they were fired for reasons unrelated to their injury. Mainly due to attitude or something like that. Then the answer is, "No." They would not qualify for income benefits because if the employer and the insurer can prove that they terminated the injured worker for reasons unrelated, completely unrelated to the injury, then they don't have to pay income benefits. Stay safe!
