What is the name of your state? CA
I recently applied for workers comp. benefits, and was told immediately to leave my job because it was making my problems worse. I worked at this job for 17 years as a bookkeeper and was quite set in the ways I kept the books. I heard thru the grapevines that since I left everything became computerized, therefore changing the job.
How long does my company have to keep my job available for me? What is their obligation regarding keeping it the way it was? What happens if I am unable to do the job the way they have it now? Can they just eliminate the job, and if so, do they have to wait until my case is finished (which may take years!)?
Thanks!
