My jurisdiction is: Wyoming
I filed with the EEOC for harrassment and was terminated a few weeks after apprising my employer of this. I then refiled with EEOC to include wrongful termination.
In the month before, I also told a supervisor I needed to see a therapist for the emotional stress the job was causing, and also sent an email to HR which referenced my alerting my supervisor to the need for therapy.
My company filed with their WC insurance for a knee injury the same month, but never let them know of my request for stress therapy. The state of Wyoming does not allow WC for mental stress or PTSD for job-related reasons unless it arises out of a physical injury. My PTSD has nothing to do with the knee injury.
I am unable to work at present due to the PTSD but I'm assuming its too late (its been two months since termination) to file for FMLA? Is there anything else I can do?
