An employee hurts his back lifting a box. One claim, one statute, one adjuster. Nine weeks later he comes back released with restrictions, and now you are holding a workers’ compensation file, an ADA accommodation question, an FMLA designation problem, and an age discrimination exposure you never saw coming. In Part One of a three part series, Chris Scott maps the intersection where Pennsylvania workers’ compensation law runs into the alphabet: the ADA, the FMLA, the ADEA, the PHRA, and the rest of the family. We cover the grand bargain that built the comp system, what the exclusivity provision under Section 303(a) actually protects and where its protection stops, why each statute defines disability on its own terms, and why the release with restrictions is the moment employers get into the most trouble. Parts Two and Three go deep on the ADA and the FMLA overlap. Consider this episode the map. Beyond the Handbook is brought to you by Thomas, Thomas & Hafer LLP and is for informational and educational purposes only. It is not legal advice, and listening does not create an attorney-client relationship.
