Confused Can they terminate me?

I was mugged outside my work, I was off a week from work, and went back. I started to have problems with some of my injuries, and went back to see my doctor. He put me on light duty. Now my job is telling me if my doctor doesn't take me off light duty, i will be terminated at the end of March.. My question is that legal?

No it is not if injury is the sole issue...

You could consult your nearest Department of Labor office to briefly discuss the issue with them first...you may also want to ask the company to put what is happening in writing and explain to them that you may have attorneys review the situation...try speaking to a higher level of management about the issue; they may override the other managers. If none of these efforts resolves the issue, let us know.
