Work Related Injuries

Recent economic problems have resulted in many workers receiving layoff notices. Many of these workers have valid work-related injuries but fail to protect their rights. Kansas law requires that an injured employee give notice to their employer within 10 days of any work related injury. Many workers, especially those with hand and arm problems, have not reported their injuries to their employers out of fear of being medically laid off. When these same workers are laid off in a general economic layoff, they must report their injuries within 10 days of their last day of work.

Many of the aircraft employers in this area perform a pre-employment physical, including a hand and arm electrical test, on new employees. Workers who have had previous hand and arm problems will not pass these tests and will not obtain employment. These same workers will not be able to make a claim against their previous employer unless they have reported their work related problems within ten days of their last day worked.

If you receive notice you are being laid off, report any physical problems you think are caused by or made worse by work to your employer with a witness. The reporting of any injury should not affect call back rights.

If you are being laid off and have physical problems;
hands, arms, neck, back, etc., call our Union attorneys
Hammond, Zongker & Farris, at 262-6800
for free legal advice and a free legal consultation.
Don’t let your employer cause you more economic harm than they already have.
