That&#8217;s because, generally, Florida is an at-will employment state. Therefore, in most situations, employers don&#8217;t need a reason to terminate employment.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In most situations, your employer will make up an excuse, such as no longer needing you, decline in revenue, or poor performance. Ordinarily, these are valid reasons under Florida law to terminate an employee. However, if the real reason for firing you is retaliation for claiming workers compensation, then the employer has <strong>violated Florida law<\/strong>.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you had an employment contract or if your job was covered by a collective bargaining agreement, then your employment is an exception to Florida\u2019s at-will rule. With those protections, your employer needs to show good cause, which generally amounts to egregious conduct, as grounds for firing you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Happens_If_Im_Fired_After_Claiming_Workers_Compensation\"><\/span>What Happens If I\u2019m Fired After Claiming Workers Compensation?&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Receiving workers compensation doesn\u2019t obligate your employer to hold your job for you. The company can fire you for legitimate reasons when you are recuperating.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, it\u2019s not legal for the company to claim <strong>falsely<\/strong>, for example, that they\u2019ve fallen on hard times or don\u2019t need you anymore. When you believe you have been fired because you got hurt and put in a claim for workers compensation, trust your gut instinct. Your firing may well have been retaliatory and unlawful.

Taking time away from work while on workers compensation, unfortunately, doesn\u2019t shelter your job from the company\u2019s economic realities. The company may continue to make employment decisions, so long as they are not motivated by retaliation for claiming workers compensation.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are let go while you are collecting workers compensation, the disability insurer should still be responsible for paying your benefits because your injury was incurred while you were an employee.
