HR Hero Audio Conference on CD and Streaming Audio
Presented by Rocky McElhaney
February 20, 2008
With each CD purchase, you get FREE access to streaming audio. CD and streaming audio are available 3 days after each live event.
Even though the live seminar on this topic has already taken place, you can still hear it! For your convenience, we've recorded it on CD and audio stream, so you can listen when you have time or share it with colleagues in your organization.
No matter what precautions you take, employees are going to be hurt on the job. The injury can be a strain, a cut, or the beginning of carpal tunnel syndrome. Whether or not an injured worker contacts an attorney depends on how the employer and the insurance provider respond to the injury.
Learn how to avoid the 10 most common workers' comp mistakes that cause employees to call a lawyer. When you participate in the all-new HR Hero audio conference, Workers' Comp Claims: The 10 Biggest Mistakes Employers Make, you'll learn how to lower your organization's litigation costs, increase workplace morale, and ensure faster recovery times for your injured workers.
An attorney experienced in personal injury claims will show you how to settle workers' comp claims amicably -- and without going to court. You'll learn how to avoid such blunders as:
- Not providing medical care immediately - A delay in providing medical treatment often results in the employee calling a lawyer. While many workers may not be well-versed in workers' compensation laws, they do understand they are entitled to go see a doctor.
- Hassled over physical therapy - Physical therapy is the best way to quickly get an injured worker back to work and back to productivity. Yet employers are hesitant to allow employees to go to therapy during the workday. If your organization does not have an open door policy when it comes to physical therapy, you are making a mistake that could lead to litigation.
- Pushy case managers - Injured workers do NOT like pushy nurse case managers. You avoid legal trouble by making sure the case manager does not go to a doctor's appointment with the employee. And under no circumstances should the case manager go into the examining room with an injured worker.
- Safety issues - Some of the most common workplace injuries occur because of faulty equipment or unsafe work areas. When employers do nothing to address malfunctioning line equipment or inadequate lighting, an injury is more likely to result in legal action.
- Violating doctor's restrictions - Doctors place restrictions on work duties so their patients can heal. If the patient doesn't have time to heal properly, another injury is more likely to occur. Yet many supervisors make employees violate doctors restrictions every day. These violations often result in a call to a lawyer.
- Plus, 5 other workers' comp mistakes you MUST avoid to safeguard your organization...
