Accident at workplace
My friend dislocated her knee in the bathroom during her lunch hour and she had already punched out. She was told that she couldn't receive any compensation because she didn't have
workman's comp and because the accident didn't happen on actual working hours. Is this true or should she have received any compensation becuase it happened in Marshall's TJX Inc.'s property?
Further, after three years of working at Marshall's full-time she assumed that she would have at the most two weeks of vacation time. However, one week before she went on vacation she was told that she was not going to get paid for vacation because the hours from her vacation were used towards the three months that she was out from the accident. Yet, she was not paid for the three months she was out , so how do they figure this out and is it right because it sounds sketchy to me?
She also had the position of Women's Department supervisor and was promised a raise after her training and official position was given to her. But when all of these was done, she was stuck with the stress and responsibilities of the position, yet after four months of talking with the manager, she has not recieved a raise. Is this right?

You raise a number of interesting legal issues regarding worker's comp, Family and Medical Leave Act, retaliation and non payment of wages. I would need more details before responding. Please call my office to discuss.
