my husband was injured in a biking accident in 2021. He was off work for period, then went back between surgeries, and has been off since a surgery in Oct 2022, and awaiting another surgery. He does not have a return to work date. We found out at a dentist visit, that his employer has cut off him extended health benefits (there is no LTD through his employer) WITHOUT ANY NOTICE. They have in writing stated he is ..."welcome back at any time, but he is no longer considered an employee as per his ROI request. The ROI request was made for ICBC strictly as a proof of income, and it states on the ROI that the reason for it was "injury/illness". He has NOT been terminated and we do not know if this is legal what they have done in terminating his benefits, while not terminating his employment.
This is a complicated situation and we would need more information to properly assess your husband's situation. Please contact us at the number below for a consultation with a legal representative to discuss your husband's situation and options.
