I injured my foot at work just by walking faster then I
usually do while helping a customer. I work in Bakery Sales.
I told several people I work with, what happened, but I
never had a injury report written. Over a six week period
my foot was so swollen I had a hard time getting my shoe
on. So I seen a Podiatrist and she ex-rayed my foot and
found it broken. I had a walking cast put on and sent back
to work with restrictions. One of which I was not to walk
or stand for long periods of time. I asked for a stool, but
was told there was none. Now I can't work for 2 months
because my foot did not heal. Workmens comp don't believe I
broke my foot at work and don't want to pay me anything.
Can workmens comp get away with not paying me anything if
it is my employers fault that my foot wouldn't heal because
of standing for 8 hours. Thank you for your time. Pat
