Legal Question in Workers Comp in Arkansas
Can I get workers if I had to quit a job because of a injury?
For some reason my back started hurting bad afer I started a jon bending and lifting most of the time. I went to a doctor and he told me I had a dislocated dsk. When my employer tried to make me lift and bend for four hours, I told them I quit. Is it possible for me to file s claim eventhought I was forced to quit?

It is going to depend on your doctors report. If the injury was definitely work-related, you can file. The amount you can collect will depend on several factors.
