Legal Question in Employment Law in Texas
My husband was injured at work and had surgery done. He is under workers comp and under doctors orders to attend therapy. His employer (Boss) will not allow him to attend his therapy and has threatned him to fire him. Another supervisor threathed him to fight him (Violence on the job). We understand that retaliation is prohibited. Please advice what otions we have. We have spoken to HR but nothing is being done. I have also contated Workers comp.

Unfortunately the only remedy is to hire a lawyer and sue the employer...and hopefully he has proof..ie recordings/ letters/witnesses....as u can imagine once suit is filed all will deny their threats etc...And espect a long wait in most courts...
