You can not be fired for suffering an injury, but you can be terminated if your job would be eliminated for other reasons. Why you actually are being terminated often is an issue of disagreement.

No. But if you don't return to work for a long time, then they can replace you. Feel free to call us at 213.388.7070 for a free consultation.
