Can you be fired while on disability?

As far as I know, when you are on disability your are to return to your employer with either the same or similar position. They can give away your position, but you are allowed back onto the job with a similar or same position. For example, you stock shelves in a store in Dept A. making $$ an hour. You go on disability and they put another person in your spot. When you return to work after being on disability your employer is obligated to have you stock shelves as before at $$ per hour, but it may be in a Dept B. I hope that makes sense. I would fill out the FMLA form because that protects you.

If you are receiving short-term disability income benefits and you decide to quit your job will you have to reimburse your employer for the percentage of your income you received during your leave?

NOT ONLY BAD QUESTION but ILLOGICAL - first you collect INSURANCE Benefits - not PAY (this money comes from insurance policy that you and/or employer pay into) - - You don't return any "insurance benefits" from anybody - unless they can prove your disability a fake. I'm guessing your short term disability is a personal health issue - and you're ready to go back to work, except you don't want to work for your old employer. If you want to get a new job - don't mention your short term disability to new employer. If new employer looks like they want to confer w/old employer - just cop a plea - like working for them made you sick! and now you realize that you need a different employer cause you Love what you do, and you want to work for someone who appreciates you! Well I could go on forever - but insurance proceeds are not PAY - and if they were you would have to pay income tax on them - so go ask IRS agent about your liability for next years income taxes. Best way to check that is to look at checks you getting from Insurance company - if pay - they're taking out FED/State income taxes.

What are the disibility discrimation act laws in relation to protecting an employee who has developed serious back pain to the point of seeing an OHN at the comp and the company trying to fire them?

An employer need not accommodate an employee's alleged disability until the EMPLOYEE initiates a request for a specific accommodation, and provide medical evidence of the impairment. THEN, the employer decides if the impairment can be accommodated, either the way the employee suggests, or any other way which is not costly or violates a union contract. An employer attempting to fire an employee does not necessarily violate ADA. Back pain is not disability. ADA disability is a permanent condition which substantially impairs a major life activity: seeing, hearing, walking, talking, eating, sleeping.
