Sure, they get money for nothing, but by the same token, they will find it hard to find work elsewhere, especially with an unsettled Workers Comp claim, so they will get theirs in the long run if they are not genuine.
Self insured company... But the bosses are starting to talk payouts to get rid of the problem; and as you said, she won't be able to get a job anywhere once its all said and done! Employers wont touch applicants with a compo history.
