Re: discharged while on disability

If they have reason to terminate for cause, for performance, layoff, reduce force, etc., they can do it to you just as well as active employees. Discharge is not 'illegal' unless you can show it to be an improper response to taking the leave. IF you can show that, contact me to discuss your facts, rights and remedies.
