    Injured workers lose security jobs after ruling goes against employer By Rob Kirkbride, Grand Rapids Press
    What responsibility does a company have for taking care of a worker injured on the job?

    That is what 14 American Seating Co. workers want to know after their jobs were eliminated this week.

    The company says it went beyond its corporate responsibility by keeping the injured workers employed with full wages and benefits.

    It would have continued to take care of its ailing workers if it wasn't for a bad apple American Seating said spoiled the bunch.
