        "description": "No, Idaho and Utah prohibit retaliation for filing legitimate workers' comp claims, but prove it with evidence of timing or statements.[7] Workers' comp is exclusive remedy against employer. Key factors: (1) Show adverse action linked to claim; (2) Protected activity includes reporting injury; (3) Burden shifts if timing suspicious; (4) Document performance pre-injury. File retaliation complaint with labor department promptly. Consult an attorney as wrongful termination suits may apply beyond comp."
