^^ but you can't be terminated "because" of the injury, can you? Like, oh you injured yourself here but modified duty doesn't suit us, so you're fired. I hope that's not allowed, anyways. You can always be terminated for cause. But that doesn't sound like the case here.

Anyways. I could definitely be wrong. I guess I just assumed it was similar to being pregnant. You can't get fired for being pregnant, and potentially requiring modified duty as a result. But you can get fired for cause while you are pregnant.
