workers comp
on 5/15 i got a deep (but small) cut on my thumb while on the clock and was sent to urgent care after filing a report with my leadership. i got stitches and we did all the paperwork. i returned to work (pfds department so pretty physically intensive) for the next few shifts with basically no accommodations. the stitches are now reopening and have been since like 3-4 days ago. i want to go to urgent care but i am scheduled to work tomorrow and cannot make it tonight. do i still need to take time off from my balances? or does workers comp make any diff? my case is still open and i emailed the case manager half an hour ago but im not hopeful. i asked my store leadership and they just said its not a serious injury so i just have to use my balances?? idk
