Cuando alguien se lesiona en el trabajo, ello afecta autom\u00e1ticamente a la cuenta de resultados de su empresa.<\/p>\n

Naturalmente, muchos empresarios (y sus compa\u00f1\u00edas de seguros) hacen todo lo posible por minimizar sus p\u00e9rdidas buscando formas de minimizar o denegar directamente una reclamaci\u00f3n de indemnizaci\u00f3n por accidente laboral. Una forma de hacerlo es a trav\u00e9s de pruebas de drogas despu\u00e9s de la lesi\u00f3n.<\/p>\n

\u00bfPor qu\u00e9 el control antidopaje posterior a una lesi\u00f3n es una t\u00e1ctica sospechosa de muchos empresarios?<\/h2>\n

Si tu accidente laboral se debe a una intoxicaci\u00f3n voluntaria por drogas o alcohol, por lo general no tienes derecho a prestaciones de compensaci\u00f3n de los trabajadores. Sin embargo, la mayor\u00eda de la gente (y la mayor\u00eda de los empresarios) sabe que muchas drogas y restos de alcohol pueden seguir apareciendo en las pruebas de laboratorio mucho despu\u00e9s de que hayan desaparecido los efectos intoxicantes de la sustancia.<\/p>\n

Imponen las pruebas posteriores a la lesi\u00f3n como un mecanismo psicol\u00f3gico que tiende a disuadir a los trabajadores lesionados de presentar una reclamaci\u00f3n. Como no entienden bien c\u00f3mo funciona la \"regla de la intoxicaci\u00f3n\", los la intimidaci\u00f3n es eficaz<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u00bfCu\u00e1ndo se puede utilizar la intoxicaci\u00f3n en su contra en una reclamaci\u00f3n de indemnizaci\u00f3n de los trabajadores?<\/h2>\n

La Administraci\u00f3n de Seguridad y Salud en el Trabajo (OSHA) ha adoptado una postura firme contra las pruebas generales de detecci\u00f3n de drogas y alcohol despu\u00e9s de una lesi\u00f3n. En esencia, eso significa que tu empleador a\u00fan puede solicitar pruebas si tiene una raz\u00f3n v\u00e1lida, pero no dispone de un plazo ilimitado para hacerlo y debe justificar su razonamiento.<\/p>\n

Adem\u00e1s, su reclamaci\u00f3n de compensaci\u00f3n de trabajadores s\u00f3lo puede ser negada si pueden probar que usted estaba intoxicado en el momento de su lesi\u00f3n y que su intoxicaci\u00f3n de alguna manera caus\u00f3 o contribuy\u00f3 a su condici\u00f3n.<\/p>\n

No se deje intimidar por un empresario<\/a> de lo que le corresponde despu\u00e9s de una lesi\u00f3n laboral, y no cuente con ellos para que le informen de sus derechos. En muchos casos, lo m\u00e1s inteligente que un trabajador lesionado puede hacer es hablar con un abogado con experiencia aqu\u00ed en San Antonio para aprender todas sus opciones.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

When someone gets hurt on the job, it automatically affects their employer\u2019s bottom line.
