Hi, hello, good afternoon.
My name is Romando Cruz and I’m going to present my story.
In the late afternoon at five o’clock, I was pulling out my cart with a cabinet on it.
The cabinet accidentally fell on my foot. I noticed that the cabinet was not in good shape.
I didn’t report to my Supervisor because I knew it’s not a big injury.
I rested for two days and came back to work.
The next morning, my Supervisor went to my station and asked me what had happened during the time of the accident.
I explained to him everything so he knew all about it.
He gave his cell phone number to me before he went into a meeting and told me that I have to call him back after my shift ends.
I was worrying about being terminated or dismissed from my job.
My wife knew all about it and she decides to call my Supervisor back.
My Supervisor told her that I have to provide a doctor’s note and a medical check up.
The next day, I brought my doctor’s note and presented it to my Supervisor.
Instead of worrying, I am happy of what had happened.
WCB or Workers Compensation Board paid my two working days that I didn’t work and reimbursed my medical expenses.
Now I know how WCB works.
