>I> read an article today in the Mercury News about an employer who moved the body of an employee who died on the job to an orchid field so they could avoid workers’ compensation benefits. Shocking!!
According to the article the employer allegedly moved the employees body from the work area to an Orchid field to avoid the fact that he died from heat exhaustion. Pedro Servin died on June 23, 2006 while working on his bosses sport utility vehicle. Mr. Servin collapsed and later died. After he died it is alleged that the owners and another employee moved the body to a nearby orchid field. The family of Mr. Servin has filed suit against his employer – General Pallet in Vernalis California.
According to investigators, Mr. Servin body was put in to the owners Yukon, driven to his residence and put in the orchid. The employee who helped them moved the body was threatened with deportation if he told anyone.
