Unfortunately, all too often, Louisiana workers’ compensation vocational rehabilitation is a way of rushing a worker with a disability due to a work-related injury back to work. This is done so other workers’ compensation benefits can stop. It is important to know that vocational rehabilitation can actually threaten your workers’ compensation lost wage benefit, which pay a part of your wages when you are too hurt to work. This program may be much more geared toward stopping your weekly checks than helping you find the best job opportunity. If a vocational rehabilitation caseworker contacts you following your workplace accident, get help from a New Orleans workers’ comp attorney.
