If you're being sued, you should have gotten an attorney immediately. If you didn't pass out because of the work you were doing, it isn't Work Comp. Just because it happens at work doesn't make it a Worker's Comp condition/injury. The employer was being proactive and concerned for your...

1. What is his diagnosis? 2. What type of work does he do? 3. How long has he worked there? 4. How many employees does the company have at his job location and within a 75-mile radius? 5. How much time did he miss for this medical condition within the last 12 months?

Actually, you're going to have to either file a claim with the federal DOL or sue in Missouri small claims. http://www.dolir.mo.gov/ls/faq/faq_general.htm

Um, didn't I give two suggestions? And seeing as how I gave them 6 weeks ago, it doesn't look like anybody had any others, otherwise they would have posted them.

I doubt very seriously we have any responders here who are familiar with non-US Law.

This is not even CLOSE to a wrongful termination. I agree that it was handled poorly; that doesn't make it illegal. http://www.wrongfultermination.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=22&Itemid=86 File for unemployment immediately.

Gotcha. As they say, spammers, DIE!!!!:no:

1. We have no idea how much you're "costing the company". Only the company can calculate that. 2. How would we know how much the employer has had to pay relative to your treatment? 3. How would what affect your unemployment? 4. Severance? We have no idea, this is a company decision, not...

Your absences are not covered under the FMLA until your doctor completes the certification forms and the employer accepts them. They must provisionally designate the absences as FMLA if they know or suspect they qualify. But unless the certification forms are completed and returned and...

If it doesn't go to court, there isn't a judgment. But yes, if they choose to report it to the big three credit bureaus, it could show on your credit report, rightly or wrongly. They could also sell the debt to a collection agency. My suggestion is to submit, in writing, repayment terms you...

Is your absence covered under FMLA? How long have you been out? Relative to SSDI, it's not as simple as just temporarily not being able to work. http://www.ssa.gov/dibplan/dqualify6.htm

It depends on the agreement. I've managed tax equalization plans for US residents working in other countries. If we paid the country's income tax on behalf of the employee, any additional tax was also our responsibility to pay but, likewise, any refund (since we paid it in the first place) was...

Since repayment terms are not specified in the agreement, I don't see how a judge could determine that immediate payment is required. But if the judge gets up on the wrong side of the bed that morning, who knows? It will take a while to get to hearing stage.

How many employees total does this company have? Here's what I'm not getting. You say you were not offered FMLA paperwork. But neither did you, at that time, indicate that you were expecting to have to take any time off in the immediate future. So why would the failure to provide the FMLA...

duplicate post Please post your question once only. All the responders in the Employment Law section read all the forums. Thank you.

Just for curiosity's sake, the employer wasn't paying the income tax on your behalf without deducting it, was he?

It's not impossible that you meet the criteria for exempt status, but without knowing exactly what your duties are, I can't form an opinion. http://www.dol.gov/esa/whd/regs/compliance/fairpay/fs17a_overview.pdf But, let's say for the sake of argument, that you meet the criteria for one of...

No, they don't "1099" you for the money unless the debt is forgiven. If you were overpaid wages, they just remain on your W-2 until the repayment is made. However any portion of the overpayment that is NOT repaid until 2010 will complicate tax matters for both you and the employer, as then you...

I just answered this on another forum.

See an attorney specializing in tax law or at least an IRS enrolled agent. Now.
