HI,
We have an employee who has exhibited rude, condescending, passive aggressive behaviour, made complaints against colleagues in bad faith and has lied about her supervisor’s conduct. She was placed on a PIP following the complaint in bad faith but has failed to meet the expectations hence the suspension. As soon as this employee was suspended (3 day suspension) she hit us with a doctor’s note asking to apply for STD. As the employer are we within our rights to advise this employee that her STD will kick in once she has completed her suspension? Or is that in violation of human rights?
