Reduction In Force

I have been undergoing medical testing to diagnose a physiological problem (still testing) but was recently terminated for the stated reason: Reduction in Force. However, the company has now rehired or filled by position.

Is this legal?

A compliance review with F.M.L.A. and A.D.A laws are in order.
