Hi,

I work in Ks,

I was injured at work just over 3 weeks ago. They sent me to the employee doctor, made me clock out. I was gone just over 90 minutes.

I figured that I wouldn't be paid for that time. I clocked back in when I returned. Today when I got my paycheck I found out that they paid me for those 90 minutes via my vacation time PTO. Is this legal?

This is also an employer who pays paid holidays the same way. So I try to work as many holidays as I possibly can.

you may have the option to take unpaid leave. you'll have to check with the employer's personnel policy as there may be other consequences to being AWOL.
worker's comp laws don't prohibit the taking of personal leave time for work comp treatments.
