i was terminated after 3yrs of employment after a worker’s comp claim was denied. i was advised by my employer to file due to lost work. i was under the care of a doctor and was not yet released to return to work. when my claim was denied i received a call from management stating that i was terminated b/c the claim was denied. my doctor had excused all absences and was willing to provide any further documentation. Management told me that a doctor’s note does not excuse absences. i was thinking about contacting a lawyer. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
