Your employer is liable for ALL injuries that happen to employees "in the course and scope of employment".

"In the scope" means while performing your assigned duties - not while fighting or stealing or picketing.

Yes you CAN, but if you become more sick or become injured because an employer FORCED you to work while you have been 'signed off', then your employer is liable BIG TIME. If you signed a legal waiver and chose to work while being 'signed off' then the consequences would be your problem.
