I have worked in Oregon for a company for 11 months. I had medical tests & was sick for 2 weeks, (I have genetic ongoing medical issues) & my employer hired someone to replace me. They said it was due to me missing too much work to previous sick/vacation time & said my position was the highest priority & most stressful. The owner said he had to replace me with someone who could keep up with the 40+ hours a week. They now want me to write a letter as to why I won't be returning to work, saying it's legally necessary for my file & trying to word it like it is solely my decision to not return based on my health, even though I've already been replaced. Is this legal and do I have to write them a letter? I feel like they are being very deceitful by their wording & tactics. I appreciate any help. Thank you
