    First its not a good idea to piggyback your question on someone else's. This can lead to confusion. You should start a new thread. So I've moved your question to its own thread.

    Your friend should have never foregone filing for Workers Comp. It may not be too late to do so. But, if your friend is taking days off, then the boss can dock him for missing days. It depends on company policy.

    Yes, he may still be able to file for workers comp, he can do so directly from the workers comp office within their state, if he does not think the company will do it.

    The pay is a issue of company policy. They need to see the HR department
