my husband was injured on the job in august of this year. He has had surgery on his wrist and is in the process of recovering. His Dr. now feels that he could return to work to do light duty. He cannot lift over 10lbs and can do absolutely no climbing. This would be okay if he did not work in construction. His boss wants him to return to work but cannot guarantee a 40 hr workweek. He would end up making less than what he recieves from workers compensation right now. We have 2 young children and cannot afford him to make any less than what he is getting now. Does he have to return to work or are there any laws in north carolina that can help us with this situation??
