There are two instances in which your employer or the insurance company can suspend, stop, or lower your workers’ compensation benefits without your agreement or a court order. If you are receiving other disability benefits or pension income or if you have returned to work and are earning money your benefits can be stopped, suspended, or lowered. Even with these instances you must be notified in writing that these changes are being made.
If your employer or the insurance company is threatening to stop your workers’ compensation benefits and it’s not because of the above reasons you need to contact us immediately.
Unfortunately, it’s not uncommon for employers to make up accusations or come down hard on employees who are injured in hopes of terminating their employment for a legitimate reason to avoid providing Workers’ Compensation Benefits.
