Add Comment Question: I had a panic attack at work yesterday and told my supervisor I had to go home. Today when I came in I was told that it wasn't a good reason to leave and sent home. They locked all my things in my locker and told me to come back for a meeting with the operations manager. Can I get fired even though my supervisor said it was OK? I haven't had any issues before and have never been written up either. Answer: They may or may not fire you and you do not have any control over their decision. If they terminate your employment the company must pay you severance. Do not sign any documentation on the spot and call us for assistance.
