Feb 1, 2018 at 21:47 comment added Simon B I bet that the company are really glad they got away with just paying you off two days pay, after you were injured at their workplace.
Feb 1, 2018 at 20:19 comment added user41891 Sounds like a huge safety issue. Or OP is accident prone?
Feb 1, 2018 at 13:41 comment added Jonathon Update: I sent an email stating that I could not physically come in for the next two days. And stated that the job was too dangerous for me personally and had come to the decision that I was resigning effective Monday. They phoned and told me that they would give me my two paid sick days, and would accept my resignation for Monday. So I feel like everything was solved equitably, I will be paid for the days that I will be nearly entirely bedridden. And then we part company, and I don't have to go back working in those conditions.
Feb 1, 2018 at 12:23 comment added Jonathon I was not the first to slip and fall that day, nor the first to fall from that work platform. Its rural construction, nothing we do would pass any sort of legal scrutiny. But that is sort of tangent to the question I am trying to ask here.
Feb 1, 2018 at 10:51 comment added Dirk One question: Did you slip all the time and fall 5 feet because you are not able to walk straight, or is it due to missing security that your boss/company should provide? So are all employees excepted to be falling all the time, or is something really wrong there?

Feb 1, 2018 at 8:12 comment added Jonathon Updated with location. But no one is goign to be prosecuted. I have no interest in that, and the ministry of labour is not omniscient.
