My specialty was voc issues and the return to work of the client-the company I worked for did not deal in medical issues-our services were contracted and paid for by employers and comp insurance carriers-part of my job was to expose and report those slackers you mentioned-I was also required to have a comp adjustors license.

I have worked in construction since about 2003-I got of tired of clients who lied and tried to scam to get undeserved taxpayer supported SSDI and never work again-nearly 35% of clients were like that-it was frustrating...

I can understand that. Unless you have your own outfit, check into the safety industry, too. Larger firms have people up on the latest regs, and it's work that won't leave you stiff in the morning when you get older. With the comp background, it might be an option.

Some say it can be overdone, but it sure saved a lot of lives and fingers, toes, and limbs during this last oil boom up here.

Either way, do what you love, and sleep well at night.
