Re: I broke my arm on my job
If your arm has now healed and been certified by your doctor as "labor ready", but your employer has informed you that currently they have no work for you to do as a part-time employee, the answer is no, Workman's Compensation should not now be paying you for your current idleness since it, apparently, has nothing to do with your previous injury on the job.
