Has your daughter been discharged or denied the time off?
Does your daughter have a union she can file a grievance with if she has been discharged or denied the time off?
The fact that your daughter had a doctor's note explaining the emergency surgery and the days needed for recovery should have sufficed.
If the employer has a human resources department your daughter should file a complaint with this department.
