Advice on what to do next?
I was sent home for an immediate medical leave from my position due to the severity of my ankle injury 3 weeks ago. For the injury and because my accommodations got in the way with other team members (they would help me get parts while I was on crutches). So I do the thing where I do the follow up doctors appointment so HR is updated. Come to find out the doctor deems my ankle extremely unstable and unsafe to work on. Because of this I had to extend my leave.
My manager decides to call me today and ask if I can return to work this week. I had informed him it’s unsafe for me to do so per the doctor (and because I can barely walk). He just replied with “we’ll see if you can come in this week so you can get back to work”. I don’t enjoy how he’s forcing me to work through a bad injury, even when I had said injury and was at work(I was limping badly, lifting the heavier things hurt a LOT to the point where I was teary eyed) he didn’t say anything until a customer pointed it out. Then he told me “oh why don’t you do this and sit down and take it easy!”.
Would this be something I can report to HR?
