Re: fired while on disability The answer to your question will depend on whether you and your former employer are covered by the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA). In order to be a "covered employer" your former company must have at least 50 employees. If they do, then in order for you to be a "covered employee" you must have been working there in a full time position for at least 12 months prior to taking leave. If both of these preconditions have been met, you likely have a valid case against your former employer.
