The job would have to come with another reason though, they couldn't publicly say i got fired because i was sick or disabled. They have be like, he was laid off due to performance issues or some bs.
They actually could say you got fired caused he was sick and unavailable. They couldn’t say you got fired because of a specific disability though. And if they did fire you because of that, HR always gonna be savvy enough to word the termination right because they know employment law. Where they fukk up at is if they are sloppy leading up to it and you catch them or your manager saying certain shyt that proves they fired you specifically for a disability and you document it. Or if you have a direct comparator…Someone in the same exact scenario that didn’t get fired.
But even then, they have to be different from you to prove discrimination. For example, a white man or a black women. You can claim discrimination based on race or gender. But say it’s another black man just like you, then it will be more difficult to prove discrimination.
The other way you can sue, which is even harder to prove is you got retaliated against by being fired. I know all this stuff because I actually sued my job and won a few years ago and had to use retaliation. I had a lot of documentation but no hardcore proof. But I had so much circumstantial evidence from documentation and caught them in flat out lies so they had to settle with me.
During this process I learned how hard it is to sue your job and how the law set up in the jobs favor. And a settlement is the best you can hope for. You really only get settlements when you have a case they can’t get dismissed immediately and would have to spend money going to court for a while. Because almost none of these make it to trial. Like less than 1% I think
