Chances are you don’t have much choice about who your boss is, and these days, you may have more than one (i.e. if you serve on a short-term project combining staff–and leadership–from various departments.)

Workers’ compensation is a sort of insurance providing medical benefits and wage replacement to injured workers. Any employee with work-related injuries that happened during their employment can use their employee rights to sue their employer for negligence, which frequently means their medical expenses are paid, they are paid for long term care, as well as being compensated for suffering and pain.

The holidays evoke feelings of joy and excitement, as well as stress and perhaps anxiety toward family gatherings.
