Employees affected by this decision come from the Division of  Workers’ Compensation, the state’s Department of Insurance, the Departmentof Motor Vehicles, the Public Utilities Commission and the Transportation Commission.

Employees are now demanding back pay for forced unpaid time off.  A decision has not been made yet.

So if yo have a Worker’s Compensation case, be on the look out for your court date to possibly fall on a Friday!
