What is the name of your state? Texas
My Husband worked as a route delivery driver for a machine shop that also supplies oxygen,acetalyne etc to welding shops. He was injured off of work hours and confined to a wheelchair for 3 months. After about one week of being off of work, they offered him a toolroom position that was open. He was told he could work 2 hours a day or 10 hours a day. it was up to him, all according to how he felt. After about 3 weeks of working this toolroom job, his employer called him on a saturday and told him that he would no longer be needed in the toolroom position and that he could come and talk to him after he was well. my question is do we have a case? I should probably add that I have it in writing by the company HR person that he is to "contact us when he is able to walk again". To me (although I am no Lawyer), it seems that we have grounds for not only a wrongful termination suit, but also a discrimination suit. Please contact me and let me know if we do or not......
Thanks in advance for your help
