Q: IF MY DOCTOR SAYS I HAVE A PARTIAL DISABILITY, MUST I LOOK FOR WORK WITHIN MY RESTRICTIONS?

A: YES. UNDER CURRENT CASE LAW AND NEW YORK STATE WORKERS COMPENSATION BOARD DECISIONS, EVEN IF YOU ARE DISABLED, YOU MAY BE REQUIRED TO LOOK FOR WORK WITHIN YOUR RESTRICTIONS. IN FACT, IF YOU FAIL TO LOOK FOR WORK THE WORKERS COMPENSATION BOARD CAN SUSPEND YOUR WEEKLY INDEMNITY (MONETARY) BENEFITS, BUT YOU WILL STILL RECEIVE MEDICAL BENEFITS. DO NOT FALL INTO THIS TRAP, FOLLOW THE SIX STEPS TO PROTECT YOUR RIGHTS TO CONTINUE TO RECEIVE WORKERS COMPENSATION BENEFITS.
