I feel at work and went to the provider they send me to and he told me we don’t take people off work its up to ur empl. I injured my tail bone back.
what can i do in this situation because I am leaving work due to the fact it hurts when I am sitting and my job is telling me I can not do that I have doctors note but the fact is the person they are sending me to said he doesn’t take people off it is up to my employer? Do I have a case knowing that they see that I am in pain in still have me there working and telling me that I need to stay at work and not be leaving?

You need to go and find an attorney who deals with worker's compensation claims in your area. If you got hurt on the job you may have a valid claim that can be filed on your behalf. Your disability and restrictions will be documented and on record. This may protect you in many ways at work that only a doctor's note can not. Good luck.
