Answer

Workmans Compensation is there to cover men and women who are injured on the job. If you ate something for lunch and got sick from it, workmans compensation won't cover it, as it didn't happen as a result of the job.

You were told you have spine damage from a injury at work and would never be able to do physical labor again If you change jobs while still under the Doctors care would the Workmans Comp still cover?

The new employer would not be required to cover this injury or pay Workmens Comp as you did not sustain this spine damage while in their employ. Best advice is to sit still in present job until signed off on the injury. Usually another job that would not further complicate the issues is available within the same company. For the best difinitive answer, you may need to consult legal counsel.


Can Workmans compenstaion cover you while travelling in a company car to and from work?

Commuting to and from work will not be covered by workman's compensation and just because you are driving a company owned vehicle does not mean that you are at work. If you are a salesman who is provided a company vehicle and you leave your home and immediately call on clients you would be considered at work when you left the home. If you report to the office first before starting your work day then you would not be at work when leaving your home.
