Pursuant to N.J.S.A. 34:15-39.1, it is unlawful for any employer or his duly authorized agent to discharge or in any other manner harass or discriminate against an employee as to his/her employment because such employee has claimed or attempted to claim workers’ compensation benefits from your company. The key is whether the employer fires you because you are claiming worker’s compensation benefits or for other reasons. Unless you have a contract or belong to a union your job may not be guaranteed.
