Can you get fired for being sick for 4 days and having a doctor's note

Hello,

Thank you for your question.

My name is Chris Justice and I am a lawyer with Samfiru Tumarkin LLP.

In answer to your question, if you believe your employment has been terminated due to being sick (i.e. a disability), the employer could be exposed to paying you damages for discrimination. Furthermore, if your employment has been terminated generally speaking, you are likely entitled to compensation (and if the employer has offered something, you are likely entitled to more).

I suggest you give me a call at 416-216-5859. From there I can gather more information and be in a better position to fully advise you as to your rights and entitlements!
