Wrongfully Terminated? California (Employment & Labor Law)

Tue, 06 Jan 2009 12:47:00 GMT

Hi, a while back I had a baby via c-section. I returned to work after 8 weeks and about 2 months later I went out again due to a major surgery I had to have. I was again out for another two months (after 6 weeks I took an additonal 2 weeks of Paid Family Leave). I returned to work yesterday but they didn't send me to my original location. Later that day I was 'laid off'. After a few words from my boss, he stated that they 'had well accomodated me' and in so many other words that I took advantage of taking time off for my baby and surgery. The girl that was at my old job location doesn't even have my job title. She works in a completely separate part of the company. Wasn't I supposed to be able to return to my old job and not have my employment terminated?
