Terminated under false pretences in TX by Health Care Service Corporation.
Over a year ago while out on medical leave I received a certified letter in the mail form my now former supervisor that I was terminated a month prior to the letter being sent to me.
They refused to tell me why I was terminated and I only found out through the Texas Workforce Commission. It was all made up because I was one of the few employees that did not misuse the company email. Violators run a muck in the company. Anyway, I had been in contact via email with the manager of my department and advised him I would still be out on medical leave because the doctor would not release me. It wasn't until a month after they fired me that the doctors found out that I had Chron's disease. There are hundreds of people whom this health insurance company has fired due to being out of medical leave. Even if you don't run out. Which I do believe I had run out of my FMLA. That is why I contacted the manager and he told me not to worry. That I would be just fine and to just get better. Never the less the stupid supervisor fired me and they up held it. What I want to know is even though Texas is a "Right to Work" state, is there anyone I can contact whom would form an investigation of this company and their practices? It should be illegal to fire someone for being sick. Oh.. for any of you whom feel I should have tried to file for disability. I had the insurance I paid for for through this company for over SEVEN YEARS and since I had not worked and could not pay the premiums and they waited to notify me a month AFTER they had fired me... well... my time limit was gone. I want them to be held accountable not just to me but to all the other former employees they screwed. Any suggestions? |

FMLA, represents the reasonable time a company must allow for individuals who are sick or fall under the FMLA umbrella. 12 weeks is a reasonable time frame and if your illness exceeded that, it is sad, but ultimately not the company's responsibility to shoulder the cost of.
I am sorry, but you are out of luck on that one. |
