If you had, or have, a second job, or own any businesses, you must also inform us immediately. Why this is important: Failing to notify us may be seen as misrepresentation and can lead to complications or reduction in your benefits. It also allows us to update your claim and work status with the workers’ compensation board.

Why this is important: It documents the progression of your injury and its impact on your ability to work. Regular medical updates ensure your claim remains active and your benefits continue.

4 If your Doctor gives a partial disability and you are unable to return to your job, you may be required to look for work within your medical restrictions. Why this is important: This shows your willingness to work within your capabilities. It can affect the status of your benefits, ensuring that you are receiving the correct amount based on your current working ability.
