If you've been hurt on the job, and you've been released to light duty. And your employer does not have work for you. Remember you have a obligation to do a diligent job search. So, what does that mean? That means that you should look for gainful employment within your work restrictions based upon what that doctor's saying. And so, when you go to an employer and ask them for work the first thing you should do is you should fill out the application. If that's what they allow you to do. But find out what the lifting restrictions are if you have a lifting restriction or what the duties are for that particular job. If you're applying for heavy heavy construction work and you've got a back injury and you know that you're not gonna be able to do that type of work. There's an argument to be made that that is not a diligent job search. You need to look for jobs within your restrictions. Stay safe!
