Probably. If you don't like it, you can take it up with the department of labor, but generally speaking if you were injured off the job your employer is not obligated to pay you to do a job you can no longer do, or to displace another worker so that you can do "light work."

Can you call an employer early to find out where you stand in the interviewing process?

Yes. It's good to give them a few days before calling them. When you reach them, say something like, "Hi. It's (your name), and I had an interview the other day. I'm curious as to if the position has been filled yet." You are entitled to know if the position has been filled or not, and because you're not asking about how appealing you are to the employer, they do not feel pressured. Instead, they see you as a potential candidate because of your interest in the position.
