An Employer Can’t Fire You For Filing A Workers’ Comp Claim

Workers’ compensation is a provision of the law that is intended to be a safety net for injured employees, and a form of financial and legal protection for employers. It is illegal or unlawful for employers to use legitimate workers’ comp claims as an excuse for retaliatory discharge of employees who have been hurt on the job. Reducing your benefits of employment, such as taking away your health insurance, may also violate the law.

If you got hurt on the job and were fired in North Carolina, please tell us about it. Contact a lawyer at the Charlotte law offices of The Bollinger Law Firm.

You may have multiple claims and causes of action against your employer. If you are fired while on restrictions from your injury, you may be owed ongoing workers’ compensation benefits. We are prepared to help you obtain all applicable workers’ compensation benefits at the same time that we prepare to sue your former employer for wrongful termination in violation of the Retaliatory Employment Discrimination Act (REDA) or under state common law.
