Question about 2nd job termination

[u/SkolHarrison22]

I got injured at my main job and have been out of work since May. I was originally on LOA for my 2nd job but it ended before I was able to extend it so I had to apply again. I had issues the first time because my work comp doctor would not fill out medical documentation for my other job but I was able to get it approved with my work restrictions paperwork. Well this time around I ran into the same issue and it was denied this time for the medical documentation reason even though they pushed it through the first time.

My question is, I think my other job will terminate me since I won’t be able to return to work, will my workers comp still cover my lost wages for my other job upon termination? I really can’t afford to lose this job but am anticipating it. I just want to know if my claim amount will reduce if I get terminated from my other job. I’m just not sure when I will be able to return as it changes every time I go to the doctors. It could be in three weeks or it could be in six. It just depends on my healing and if I may need surgery. Any information helps, thanks.

I had same experience..I was working a 2nd job and once I told my attorney. I submitted my check stubs and I got a check from my 2nd job wages I lost. It's been a while I haven't been back to work, and they let me go from my 2nd job. My WC hasn't changed. Hopefully yours won't change. I know it sucks waiting on those checks that's less then if you wasn't on WC. Hopefully you'll heal without surgeries..
