Florida ''Right To Fire''?

I was in an auto accident and my orthopedic doctor gave me a work release for me to stay off my feet for several days to allow some time for my back muscles to heal. My employer said that he would have to replace me and that Florida was a right to fire state, so he could let me go if I didn't come in.

Is this true? Would my work release prescription fall under the family medical leave act? Help!

I would ask for an accomodation in writing. Whether the ADA, Florida Civil Rights Act or FMLA apply to you would depend upon the size of your emploeyr and its policies. Please call or e-mail me if you have any further questions.
