I had poor attendance due to substance abuse went off work, while waitingfor rehab i had missed a couple appt with councilor and doctor told third party ins doctor I relapsed They denied my claim while still under doctor care I told my employer about my addiction they gave me a leave of absence to work withWRP until i go to rehab They also want me to sign a Last Chance Agreement they say because of my attendance due to my addiction and if I dont sign it Im terminated
Can they do this seeing as I was the one who came forward to tell them about my addiction?
