My question involves labor and employment law for the state of: New York
My wife had a part time (20 hrs/week) job. She developed an arthritis-like disease around Christmas and has been unable to work since then. She is currently receiving disability insurance from her employer's insurance company. Her Dr has said that she may be able to return to work at her old job for a day a week or so in July. This would require that she re-apply for this new job. My question is: can she apply for this new per diem job at the same company while collecting disability payments or does she have to wait until the insurance payments stop?
Thanks
