The United States Supreme Court has concluded that video surveillance is an
acceptable means of investigating workers’ compensation injury claims. These
surveillance results can be used as evidence in court. Findings from video
surveillance gives an
objective view of a person's physical capabilities and daily activities as
related to their claim of workplace injury. The evidence obtained becomes a
solid, effective negotiating tool when an individual's alleged injury is
contradicted by videotape evidence.
