I've also been injured on the job. In fact, I got hit on the head on the assembly line by a moving part. I was out for 40 minutes, but I'll tell you, my zone manager wanted the assembly line started back up because of the cost to the auto manufacturer of down time on the assembly line.
If we have a worker who's out in the apron area and they encounter a work injury--it may not necessarily have anything to do with the air carrier--should the air carrier be responsible for paying compensation for a delayed flight because of a work injury? It can certainly happen a lot more often than some may realize, but it certainly can happen. If a worker is injured out there, is that fair to make an air carrier pay for that?
