    [h=2][​IMG] J b hunt ---- please read if you are thinking of working here !!!!!!!!!!!!![/h] I currently am a driver here. I was robbed and beaten for nearly 1 hour on Aug 1 2012 in Lansing Mi while making a delivery... After surgery and lots of doctor appts my workers comp has been nothing but a battle... Today I learn from my attorney that JB Hunt is now denied the claim thru the OIC and OBWC .. Just more to aggravation an already bad situation..... Before you go to work for this company ask your self if this had happen to you would you deserve to be treated this way ? Is this a company worth working for ? I was even told by the company safety dept to seek counseling and when I did they sit back and denied it as if it were some kinda joke. Just another slap in the face as if what happened wasn't enough already.... Think about this before you decide to work here that is all I ask !

    Didn't you post this once before? I understand you were robbed and beaten. But, are you seriously telling me that the suspect hung around and continued to beat you for almost an hour? Thats one long beating.

    yes the 2 of them beat me for nearly 1 hour before robbing me and the store I was making a delivery too. It resulted in some serious surgery and a lot of healing time

    Hopefully your attorney can get something done for you, that really stinks.

    If some thugs beat you up and rob you while on the job, that's not a workmans comp issue.
    If a pallet of hammers falls on your head, that's a workmans comp issue.
    It has to be injury in the regular course of doing your job, not a random act of crime.

    There are dozens of lawyers that advertise to battle for workmans comp on TV alone.
    What does your lawyer say?

    Where,and how did this happen?What were the circumstances that lead up to this?
    Iv'e been around some sketchy people,but the whole 1 hr beating would make me
    wanna tote protection.
    Dam if I wanna drive 11 hrs. no sleep,underpayed,hungry,sometimes horny,then get
    my azs beat for 1 hr. for a finisher.
    I personally would go hunting in that area on my time off.
    What did cops say? Any photo line ups?

    Edit..I see you were in Michigan.Where did you deliver to Liquor store?

    You were the victim of a crime.. this is not a company issue, this is a criminal complaint or possibly a suit against the place you were deliivering too. The scenario is rather odd, but this isn't JB Hunt's fault IMHO.

    He said he was making a delivery, hard to do if you never leave the truck, beside this is Michigan, our own third world state, I doubt locks pose much challenge to them there.
