I don't have PTO hours left and my employer used my extended illness hours for my 2 work days after PTO has been used. My doctor still put me on light duty for the next 4 work days, and HR said I have to file leave of absence because there is no light duty available. What is the next best thing for me to do? Just file medical leave? I don't want to lose my job, doctor said he will follow up with me after a week and see my improvement after physical therapy. My modified duty note from worker's comp doctor is no lifting pushing pulling over 20 lbs no repetitive bending lifting stooping twisting. I was diagnosed with lumbar strain with radicopathy. Employee health nurse is saying that I should just file a medical leave/leave of absence. My concern is how can I still get the same amount of pay for the following pay period. How does disability or worker's compensation work? Is that an option for my case and will it cut my pay into half?? I don't know what I should do or the options that I have. Also, is that legal for my employer to just put me on leave because they can't give me modified duty?
