Can an employee with restrictions be allowed to work as if they had none?

Answered by attorney Andrew Tyler Velonis (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at Andrew T. Velonis, P.C.
Usually, the function of release to work with restrictions is to allow the employer to have the employee return to the workforce. So, the concept is that they are allowing her to come back to work, provided that she works within the restrictions. If you are her supervisor, then it is up to you to instruct her that she is not allowed to lift anything beyond the weight limit set by her doctor. If she does, then you take disciplinary action the same as if she were breaking any other workplace rule. Document this to the max. You did not deny her the cold packs, you allowed her access per company rules. She dosen't have to like the company policy, but she does have to follow it, the same as you, whether it is stupid or not. Write up a memo for all of this, make it as factual as possible, no editorials, no characterizations, just a recitation of the events, ask your boss to sign it. Notify HR regardless, let them deal with it.

What can I do if I was hurt on the job and fired while still going to worker’s compensation doctor?

Get a worker's compensation attorney. By law they only get 15 percent if you win. Most cases win that are not based on fraud.

Can I still press charges against a person after 3 years or is it too late?

First of all, it isn't up to you. You already said that the police refused to press charges, but then you said that you were both issued tickets, which means that charges were in fact brought. If they didn't take action then, what makes you think they would do so now?
