My question is on the Employee Verification of Work and Change in Physical Condition Form(PA)
I live in mechanicsburg, PA. I was injured on the job at weis markets where I slipped and fell on a broken container of liquuid laundry detergent that a supervisor had broke. He never put up a wet floor sign or made in effort to clean it up, there were also empty boxes blocking sight of the broken container and spill area.I was never offered medical attention that night. I had to go and get my own accident report from the office. They never asked me if needed to go home or anything. I was clearly in pain as I was having trouble walking because my back, and legs began to tighten. I was told to come back after I finished my shift for a meeting with the store manager where I was fired. They said it was due to lack of speed in stocking. Plus I was still in my probationary period. They said that they would not brown slip me so I could go to concentra urgent care. This was several hours after the injury. I was given xrays and some medication from the dr. I was then scheduled for physical therapy and started that 3x a week a few days later. I was receivng treatment for my back, legs, & neck. Maybe a month later I was complaing to the therapist about more neck and shoulder pain, I almost always was treted by a intern not the actual therapist, they pretty much acted like it was no big deal. It took over a month of of me telling them about the pain increasing in the shoulder before they decided to send me for an mri, and to a physiatrist. It showed multiple tears to the routater cuff. Which my PAC told me was due to me trying to stop the falll with my right arm during the fall.
My question is on the Employee Verification of Work and Change in Physical Condition Form(PA)
#5 Is there any information you are aware of that is relevant in determining your entitlement to, or amount of compensation?
I am not sure how to answer this question I have been out of work for over 3 months now due to this injury, and have not been receiving any payment compensation for the injury during this time.
Thanks in advance for any insight or info you guys can give me on this matter.
