If I’m Being Paid Virginia Workers’ Compensation Can I Quit My Job?

Injured Workers Law Firm - Richmond, Virginia 804.755.7755 http://www.injuredworkerslawfirm.com If I’m being paid Virginia Workers’ Compensation, can I quit my job? Some injured workers ask the question “If I’m being paid Virginia Workers’ Compensation, can I quit my job?” The answer is yes and no. You can quit your job, but I strongly advise that you speak with an attorney because there are ways to do it and protect your benefits. If you are on light duty and you are going to go to another light duty job of equal pay, it is not going to be a problem. However, if you just want to quit, then you will have taken yourself out of the job market and you’re not going to get a weekly compensation check. Your circumstances could suddenly change and you need to get a weekly check, but you may have permanently destroyed that chance by quitting the job. So yes, you can quit, but you have to be careful of the minefield that you're about to walk through. Your medical benefits will follow you regardless of your employment status or where you are working.
