Legal Question in Workers Comp in Minnesota
workmen's compensation
a friend of mine fell while getting off a plane on a return flight home. She did not notify the employer, but did go to the ED - now the ins company says she needs to file a claim w/the airlines - shouldn't this be covered under WC and why should she pursue it with the airlines direct?

Re: workmen's compensation
Your friend should contacta work comp lawyer or go to the work comp commission for help. If she was flying for her employer's business, it is a work comp claim andthe insurer has to sue the airline..not her..besides, the airline may not be at fault..
