I am only being compensated for being a part time teacher as I was on sick leave for half the work day at the time of my claim. Is there anyway I can appeal this? I was not mentally competent at the time of my application and I always have assumed I could go back to work.I am working with the insurance company's treatment provider for my disability who say that I am not ready to go back to work. My 2 year LTD mark will be coming up soon. I was thinking of changing my own treating doctor and read somewhere this may not look good to the insurance company. Can you please comment on this?Hello, I'm on short term disability due to sever depression and anxiety (confirmed by my doctor) as a result of long lasting bullying & harassment of a coworker, but unfortunately first HR and then recently WCB both rejected my case saying it was not workplace harassment. This is while I have few witnesses and many other evidences for the harassment events. I'm still very ill and very stressed out and worried thinking whether or not HR and WCB rejecting my case could effect the short term disability which is paid by my employer, or that could eventually have a negative effect on my case being approved for the long term disability in case I don't get well soon enough to get back to work. Also, should I fight for my rights with WCB, or my case being rejected by WCB won't effect on my short or eventually long term disability approvals? Would you please advise. Thank you so much, Regards, LaraHello, I have been off on disability for approximately 1.5 years. I plan to retire when I'm fit to return to work.
