LOUISIANA WORKERS’ COMPENSATION SECOND INJURY BOARD
POST-HIRE/CONDITIONAL JOB OFFER KNOWLEDGE QUESTIONNAIRE
EMPLOYEE: The intent of this questionnaire is to provide your employer with knowledge about any pre-existing medical condition or disability which may entitle your employer to reimbursement from the Louisiana Workers’ Compensation Second Injury Board in the event you suffer an on-the-job injury. This reimbursement in no way affects the benefits owed to you by your employer or its insurance company under the Louisiana Workers’ Compensation Act. La. R.S. 23:1021-1361. However, your failure to answer truthfully and/or correctly to any of the question on this questionnaire may result in a forfeiture of your workers’ compensation benefits.
In order for your employer to be considered for reimbursement from the Second Injury Board, it has to show that it knowingly hired or retained you with a pre-existing medical condition or disability. To establish its knowledge, your employer is requesting that this questionnaire be completed.
Instructions: Please answer ALL questions completely. If a response requires an explanation, please provide a brief description on the Explanation Page. If you have any questions or need help in answering the questions on this form, please ask for assistance from the Employer Representative signing this form.
