Can an employer force and employee to sign a document giving the employer the right to obtain the employee's medical record and if the employee refuses, can the employer terminate him/her?

Thank you for your question. This would entirely depend on the circumstances. An employer does have the right to request further medical information if you are off work ill or require accommodation. That said, an employer cannot request medical records without a valid reason for doing so. If you have been terminated, I would encourage you to visit the severance pay calculator our firm has developed to see what you are owed (www.SeverancePayCalculator.com). Regardless, I would encourage you to call us and set up a consultation with one of our employment lawyers to fully discuss your matter.
