Breast Cancer Breast Cancer Symptoms / Diagnosis Treatment Daily Life From Pam Stephan, your Guide to Breast Cancer I once worked in a 3-person office. After some time, both women developed breast cancer and the man came down with prostate cancer. It was a stressful office - but we didn't file for worker's comp.

The worker accepts the medical benefits and in return, agrees not to sue their employer for damages or negligence.

Do you think her case will set a precedent?
