An employer could retaliate; however, employers are well aware that you could then file a lawsuit for discrimination or retaliatory termination. If you suspect that you have been fired because you filed a worker’s compensation claim, gather evidence to prove your suspicion is true.
If you have fully recovered from your injury, but your doctor has imposed limitations as to what is safe on-the-job, then you must discuss these restrictions with your employer. Your employer must make reasonable efforts to accommodate your work restrictions so you can perform your work duties.
If you’re unable to perform your regular work function, you could be eligible for additional worker’s compensation benefits in Colorado.
