More details to this question:
I reported to my new work station and management refuses acknowledge my medical documentation for limited duty for an injury that was on the job in 2006. Now the supervisor insists I go back to my old job when paperwork says i have the new job, so they sent me home and refuses to pay me I have been without pay since 12/31/2013 when the job began. Management is now saying I am AWOL and attempting to force me to use my vacation time and if i don't i could be fired.

Update Your Profile
1. the doctor's reports on what you can do and cannot do at work will be controlling. do you have an updated medical report stating specifically what you can do or not do at work. if not, please obtain same asap. i would work with both the doctor and your employer to resolve the issue. ed dimon,esq. 2. i saw your response. if you cannot use the medical reports to convince your employer, you may have to use an attorney to make the law clear to your employer. let us know if we can be of assistance. ed dimon, esq.
