A friend can't lift her arm above her head after being asked to lift a 180lb box at a major retailer chain when her shoulder "popped". She requested to file the company's report for such incidents but was asked not to submit the report because "It's a lot of paperwork." and the location "is nearing a year without any injuries being doctor level".



I'm wondering how the labor laws in Florida protect employees in such cases and whether she should seek any kind of legal action if the company refuses to pay her medical bills.
