Yes, absolutely, keeping track of where you look for work is better than trying to remember every place you looked and the details of the job you attempted to get. When a worker is injured and is asking for industrial disability benefits a credible job search demonstrates his/her desire to work and looking for work firms up your credibility as a witness. We can all agree that not working isn't proof of disability. Anyone can sit at home and do nothing. A part of industrial disability is a desire to work and that is demonstrated by getting out looking for a job and by filling out applications for employment. A person who claims to not be able to work, but who sits home on the computer all day or bowls in three leagues during the week isn't industrially disabled; that person is lazy. Last I checked laziness is not an element of industrial disability; quite the opposite. 
 So maintain a job search list. If you need one see our forms section of the Lombardi Law Firm site.

Should I be keeping track of where I look for jobs?
