I was diagnosed with cancer and the doctors have said that I have beat it. My employer won't allow me to come back to work. He says that they don't need someone that can have such an "unpredictable attendance record." Is this legal?
By Deskin Law Firm
It may be unlawful for a company to discriminate against you based on your medical condition especially with any health impairment related to or associated with a diagnosis of cancer, for which you have been rehabilitated or cured based on competant medical evidence.
Have you been discriminated against based on your medical condition?
To figure out if your discrimination situation is illegal you must determine:
1. If you are an employee protected from discrimination under the law.
2. If your employer is subject to anti-discrimination laws.
3. If your employer's conduct is considered discriminatory under the law.
4. If the reason your employer discriminate against you violates the law.
