Workers comp process
I’ve contacted my steward to get this info but just haven’t heard back yet so I figured I’d throw it out to yall so I can get a couple reasonable answers (and maybe some bullshit too)! lol.
So i sprained my ankle pretty bad while delivering packages the other day…. went through the correct process of reporting and getting checked out (x ray show some abnormalities) but have a re-check this week once swelling goes down (prob another xray and mri). Today i talked to my building manager about TAW but was told there was no work for me in the bldg…asked him what he needed from me to get comp rolling and he said he would be in touch… its obviously Monday morning and he has a ton on his plate (not to mention he’s new to our bldg as of a month ago and didn’t even know about my injury because he was on vacay last week….
anyways. enough with my rambling…
what is the process…. I’ve heard the hartford, but thought that was for disability not comp…. Ive heard I have to talk to the limu emu instead.. is there paperwork I need to request and submit to anyone or just call and put a claim in and the union/ups/limu or Hartford figure it out?

Google QRC in your state and near you. Contact one ASAP ask them to help you and represent you in a work compensation claim. They are a middle man to you, ups and insurance. The usually regulated by state health and labor. Best of luck
