Workers Compensation Issues: How Far Can an Employer Make You Travel for Light Duty Work

My question involves workers compensation law for the state of: pa
got put on light duty with alot of restrictions, the place i was working at is 5 miles from home, they say they have no light duty there, and want me to drive over an hr away I can not do that, still seeing dr, and now scheduled for an mri, problem is i am not collecting any money since they offered light duty. can i collect from unemployment or temp disability since the light duty is too far? should i go to light duty job for a few hrs and claim cant do work because its too painful and im afraid it might cause further injury, then report to dr to be taken off light duty so i can collect till i can be released to full duty (could be a long time) if i keep refusing to drive to light duty i am pretty sure they can terminate me and i will not be able to collect anything and still be injured and going to their dr. should i go to my own dr and see if he will say no light duty so i can collect? I like my job and dont want to loose it, but am out of $$ distance to light duty jobs is 58 to 60 miles, also the company just called again and said they are laying off all temps, but want to keep me because im a good worker and was recomended, i think they are giving me last chance to do light duty before terminating me, dont know what to do
:wallbang: im still injured the mri is scheduled march 3rd 2017
