reality Posted May 4, 2017 Report Posted May 4, 2017 TAMPA (FOX 13) - People faking an injury to get a big payout from workers’ compensation: It’s a problem you could be paying for. Several bills addressing changes to Florida's workers' compensation system were filed this legislative session as businesses here face a nearly 15-percent rate increase, and fraud could play a role in rates rising over time. In one example of workers’ comp fraud out of Fort Lauderdale, a woman picked up a sprinkler head after it had fallen on her desk, then hit herself in the head with it to stage an on-the-job injury.
