Add Comment Question: I had issues with my foot that required me to be off for a week or until I got a second note from the doctors. On the Saturday/Sunday I noticed my foot was exponentially better ( after being on anti biotics ) but when I tried to pick up shifts my employer gave me nothing. I asked to cover someone’s shift but she said no and gave it to someone else. Answer: Thank you for your question. My name is Jon Pinkus and I am an employment lawyer with Samfiru Tumarkin LLP.
