My husband runs a company that is forced to hire Union goons. as the Employer, he pays 85k per month for the “privilege” of employing said A**holes. Workmen’s comp is outrageous as well, try winning one of those suits even with photos of the “injured” cutting down trees and shoveling two feet of snow!
Such a sickening SCAM!
Auuugh!
Do Not get me started! This is a relatively small operation.
That sounds pretty much par for the course; I hired private detectives to look into and report on some of the Workers Comp cases I had that I thought were fraud.
I actually had video of one crook doing down hill skiing at Mammoth Ski Resort, and video of another doing league bowling.
Both were supposed back injuries.
The state doesn’t care because they are not paying the insurance costs on WC, the employer has to do that.
I could go on for a thousand cases and ten thousand pages about the fraud that their unions encourage, and the state ignores.
The ones I really hated were the ones that happened when an employee would injure themselves doing a side job on the weekend, then come crawling into work and an hour later they would claim an on the job injury, with NO witnesses of course.
You just have to file their claim and hire a good detective.
And also get an honest Labor Board hearing.
