Legal Question in Workers Comp in California

I was injured in January. If I already made plans for vacation previous to getting injured and requested the days off according to my employers procedures, can my employer refuse my previous request because I've been off work due to my injury?

Your plan to go on vacation may invalidate your claim for worker's compensation benefits. If you need to be under care of a doctor for your injuries your vacation may worsen your condition or it may make your injuries trivial. Feel free to call us at 213.388.7070 for a free consultation.
