You may think whatever you share, post, tweet or tag will have no impact on your case, but that is not true. It is a common practice in Idaho worker\u2019s compensation for the insurance company\u2019s attorney to request Facebook and other social media profiles. They are looking for anything to use against you in your claim. If there is a post in there of you after your work related accident boating, hunting, working or any physical activity, this could be used against you in your Idaho worker\u2019s compensation claim.\u3000 Even if that picture was taken before the accident and you are just posting at a later date, it may still complicate or delay your claim.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"LTR\" align=\"LEFT\">Your social media is not as private as your think. The Idaho Industrial Commission, who serve as the judges in Idaho Worker\u2019s compensation cases will order that you turn over the contents of your private social media posts including Facebook.
