Worker's Comp Available for Headboard Headaches!

[Coito ergo sum]

The woman, who cannot be named, challenged the rejection of her workers' compensation claim for facial and psychological injuries suffered when a glass light fitting came away from the wall above the bed as she was having sex in November 2007.

The male friend said in his statement at the time that they were "going hard” and he did not know if they bumped the light or it just fell off.

“I think she was on her back when it happened but I was not paying attention because we are rolling around.”

Yes, it makes perfect sense that the employer would pay higher premiums because the employee is injured having sex.

Something VERY similar happened to me a few months ago, but unfortunately we were in my apt, no business trip. I got cut, but didn't even need stitches.

Put a damper on the activities, however.

Could she be charged with prostitution?

I had a wall-mounted headboard fall off in a hotel once during sex... guess I should have filed a claim.

[Coito ergo sum]

heh heh....I bet you were "wall mounted..." - you little vixen!

Definitely. If she had been having sex in her own home rather than in a location where she was forced to be by her job, the injury would not have happened, or would have been on her dime.

When you're away from the home due to work related reasons, any accidents happening to you are work injuries.
and don't try to make me cry for the employer, I'm pretty sure it can afford the new premiums.

Was she fucking her employer?

Not like it was his own money anyway, I suspect it's the company's.

By that logic, contracting a venereal diseases is workers comp. LOL

If your company sends you somewhere, and you catch one there, yes, it's a work related accident.

Was she fucking her employer?

She was fucking on the job.

Only if she was "on the clock".

She was fucking on the job.

I never had sex while on the clock, yet often felt dirtier than a cheap whore.

Damn uncomfortable, that...

Dunno US law... but here, if I'm sent to somewhere by my job, say, to audit a customer, or for a training session, and I have an accident at my hotel, it's most definitely a work related one...

maybe she should have sued the hotel for being dangerous too, though... If I had to file suit over a hotel related accident on a work trip, my suit would certainly name both the hotel and my employer.
