State of NY,
Ok I have a strong workers comp case - employers insurance company has been fine. My injuries are T-7/8, bulging and herniated disk - L-3/4 buldging and herniated, both approved for disk replacement, L-5/S-1 approved for disk fusion, also right hip labrum tear, awaiting futher exam's.
I maybe deciding to settle the case instead of surgery, heard many good/bad stories regarding the proceedures.
My question is, can I sue my former employer for neligence, since they offered no on the job training or supplied the proper equipment to perform the job safely..
I worked for a major discount outlet store and was hurt while moving a piece of large furniture with no proper equipmrnt to do so, and no employees available to help with such items, I routinely would have to move or lift items that on the packaging stated "team lift", but because they were allways understaffed and typically worked with women I had no help (not saying a women couldnt help)...
Thier practices are still in-effect...so do I have the right to sue?
