I was off work due to medical non work related for 8 days (6work days) with a doctor's note stating off effective immediately and a rtw date. 6 days in my HR insisted on functional abilities rtw form. This weighing down the medical community and trying to get in within days. Are they allowed to force me to return and get a form filled out?

Employees in Ontario have the right to job-protected sick leaves. Employers may request that employees provide supporting medical documentation and complete functional abilities forms, but should be providing employees with enough time to do so. If you would like to schedule a consult with one of your legal representatives to discuss your rights and options, you can do so by calling +1-855-821-5900.
