I returned to work after I took two days of sick, because I wasn't feeling well. When I returned to work my HR Manager said she received a verbal compliant against me. The HR manager also made remarks against my face and the way I look. The next day I received a note saying I will be terminated if my behavior continued. I was upset and took sick leave, while on sick my employee threatened to terminate me if I don't return. My doctors say I have anxiety, stress and depression as a result of what happened to me at work, and I am unable to return. However my employer has terminated me. Is there any monetary compensation I can settle for, as well be eligible to received disability benefits from workplace which I would have been entitled to if I was not terminated on sick leave?
