Workers Comp and a Suspended Employee.....

dgoodhall

I have an employee who has an active open workers comp case, He is currently on light duty and while on the job last week he damaged client property signifigantly.

 

My question is if we suspend him without pay, will workers comp just pay him for the suspended time? We opted for suspension in lieu of termination for this instance.

I would be checking with your claims adjuster/insurance company.  It might just depend on the circumstances and state WC law
