My local manager didn't want for me to be terminated (of course they all say that). Corporate Headquarters is in Pennsylvania, where the laws are different. The termination came from HQ, not from the local level. All I can say is they better have some damn good attorneys that know California Workers Comp laws....because they are in for a heap of hurt now.
According to the laws of the State of California, it is illegal to discriminate against an injured worker, and VERY illegal to terminate an injured worker while they are still listed as temporary disability. HEads are gonna roll and I'm definitely gonna force the issue. I've never been terminated from a job in my life, and I'm not about to be now! I would like nothing better than to go back to work. I hate doing nothing and those that know me are totally baffled on how I made it this long. I have never taken a sick day with this employer, even though we have unlimited sick days and when taking a vacation, it was never for more than 3 days because I just simply hate not staying busy. You know, the hell of it is, while I've been out on workers comp, there have been NUMEROUS times that my employer, managers, project leads, techs, etc have called me for tech help and opinions on how something should be done. They even had me working on writing up a National Scope Of Work Contract and the instructions for it (For A Major Bank in the US). I didn't get ANYTHING for helping out, nor did I ask for anything. I was just glad to be doing something. Now they treat me like this. 
Oh man...I gotta stop before I have a coronary. I am SO PISSED OFF!!!!!!!!!

Either way, you still have to deal with it emotionally (e.g. getting all worked up over it). You've got the law on your side for this one. It doesn't matter where you're corp office is, it's where you are based out of. If you are living in California and are based out of California that is where the law applies. 
 
Just hang in there, they're just burying themselves more and more!. They keep that shit up, I see your name on the building!. 
Yeah, my name on the building would be cool...as a landlord 
I don't want the business. They have too many corporate idiots that don't know WTF they are doing
