Just to prep you on what's probably gonna happen...
Your job won't pay a dime claiming the WC won't accept the liability and that everything goes through the homeowners plan. After all, why would they, it was negligence on the homeowners that caused the injury.
The bad part about that is you won't get a dime until you sign their release and you may not even know the full extent of your injuries.
I'm dealing with a similar problem where I was bit by a pit bull on my dominant hand a couple months ago in a home I was doing a service call on. WC doesn't pay anything in my case, everything goes to the HO policy.
I missed a little over a week of work and have to wait for all the doctor bills to finish up before they will offer me a settlement for discomfort, missed time, bills and anything else.
If you haven't contacted the homeowners policy, you are already behind the 8ball.
