What is the name of your state? Florida
I was involved in an auto accident last December. Due to the injuries I sustained from the accident, I missed approximately 6 wks of work. Also the week that the accident occured, I had worked about 20 hours of OT. Since I missed the last two days of work I lost all the overtime pay in addition to regular pay that particular week.
Since then I have received a partial payment for some of the lost wages. However, I have not seen anything about the overtime pay or the remainder of the 6 wks I was out.
I should also add, that the other driver was cited for the accident. (He ran a stop sign going about 55-60 mph in a residential area) and I was only a passenger in the vehicle that was struck.
My questions to you: Shouldn't I be due any and all lost wages? Is my overtime included as lost wages? (I have records proving that this was time I had already signed up for and was working).
I appreciate any information you can provide. Thank you.
