I recently became ill and was tested for covid-19 which came out negative. I have given them everything that they asked for and is required in order to return to work and they are now telling me I cannot return to the job they hired me for. Please advise.

At most, they could have asked you to quarantine for 14 days and then submit another test. However, under current laws, they are not able to discriminate against for being tested.
