Legal Question in Employment Law in Florida

Re: Can I lose my Full time status and pay?

Your question cannot be answered with a simple yes or no. There are several laws, both state and federal, that provide protection for workers such as yourself. However, to determine if you are covered I would like to know more about the company that employs you. How many employees are there? How long have you worked there? How long were you absent from work? Are you able to return to work without any restrictions? As you see your question is a bit more complex that at first it might seem. I suggest you speak with an attorney you trust. If you would like, you can send me an e-mail to [email protected]. Good luck.

Re: Can I lose my Full time status and pay?

consider the possibility that this is "retaliation for your workers' compensation status"... there is a provision in florida law on this...consult with a workers compensation atty. There is caselaw under that statute. however, the actions taken by your employer might have been for a different reason. therefore, the prior atty reply is well founded.. Consult counsel promptly, preserve the evidence!
