Retaliation Against Employees that are Injuried

The Issue

It is federal law that no employer can retailiate against an employee that has been injuried, yet many times this is repeated over and over again in the work enviroments that mandy Americans work in.  Then you are face with a time frame that is set that a person can apply for workers compensation, which needs to be changed.  If an employee has an injury that makes them unable to get legal representation due to the injury then there needs to be a new law wrote that protects the employee.   There should be longer time periods that a person that has a injury to their head or trauma injury is protected.  Many Americans have been hurt on the jobs and the law is not protected them but protected the Corporations, Universites, etc.
