An unfortunate accident has claimed the life of 32 year old Lori Keen of Franklin, Indiana. While checking in a shipment of water at a Franklin Kroger Supermarket, a pallet of the bottled water fell on Keen. After being on life support for several days, Keen died at Methodist Hospital on Saturday. Indiana Occupational Health and Safety Administration is completing an investigation.

As an injured worker, you might be familiar with delays and problems that arise throughout the Worker's Compensation process. Thanks to Indiana State Representative Chuck Moseley, those delays and shortfalls in treatment will be improving in the near future. House Bill 1116 would prohibit an employer or an employer's work comp insurance carrier from delaying emergency medical treatment for worker's compensation injuries. While the bill now must return to the House for approval, change is on the horizon.

All too often we see instances where an injured employee is denied immediate medical treatment after being injured on the job. The employer will often send the employee home to "rest", tell the employee to see his or her family doctor, or even fire the employee. All of these actions are taken to avoid filing a claim with the employer's work comp insurance carrier as required by law.
