Add Comment Question: can an employer fier,when you come back from stress leave or sick leave Answer: My name is David Vaughan and I am an employment lawyer with Samfiru Tumarkin. It would most likely be a human rights violation for an employer to terminate an employee's employment upon their return from a medical leave. Further, the employee would be entitled to severance pay. Please visit the severance calculator for an estimate of your severance entitlements (https://www.severancepaycalculator.com) and contact our firm to discuss in more detail.
