Yep

it depends on the area you live in. in the state i live in. a worker who is still working but on a workman's comp claim, must be paid for the time used to go to doctor visits and p. t. since by continuing to work they are not receiving any money to compensate for their time. also keep in mind, what time does the p. t. office close. is the worker getting off work too late to be able to go after work? are the offices closed at that time? when the injury occurs on the job, the employee is to report to the doctor right away. that worker is still 'on the clock' and getting paid for that visit. if it is a condition that they attend p.t. in order to return to work in an uninjured state, then it must be considered part of their job to attend the p.t. if it is to be considered part of their job duties, they must be paid for their time. even if it means attending p.t. while 'on the clock'. also keep in mind, it is illegal to fire a person for being injured on the job. you could be walking a fine line here if the person convinces a judge that he/she was fired for that reason instead of because of taking work time to attend p.t. appointments.
