Legal Question in Workers Comp in Kentucky
injured at work
I sliped and fell on some steps at work and hurt my back in Sept. 2007, and was taken to ER for care. The Dr. recommended rest for next two days and I informed my supervisor at the time of this. I was never compensated for lost wages during this time, however. What are my rights? can I ask for lost wages at this point more than two months later?
Thank You.

Yes, you can still demand compensation. You need to make sure you have submitted all the necessary documents to your employer. They must tell you what is needed. If there is no progress in the next couple of weeks, I recommend you go to see an attorney.
