My father was diagnosed with Ahlziemers last year and he refused to stop working. Well, He has been doing things here and there that arent really appropriate. Like shooting the building with a paintball gun.... and today he spray painted a rebel flag on a rock. they had a meeting with him today and told him they were terminating him and that he will not get a dime of money. he is three years away from retirement. They said he could resign and they would put it on his record but he still wouldnt receive his pension. He lost his retirement, life insurance and benefits. We know his actions are do to the Alhziemers because hes worked there for 25 years and was always one of there best! is there anything we can do?Legal Advice?
I'm afraid that he probably has no recourse against them for terminating him. It may not be legal for them to fire him for his illness, but it is legal for them to fire him due to his actions. You can't blame them for being concerned about liability issues. Even if you could somehow overturn their decision to terminate him, it's not likely that they would allow this to continue for three more years.
It sounds like you have a good claim for disability benefits, but I don't see much more you can do.Legal Advice?
Sue the employer for age discrimination. In family court, get someone named guardian and have him committed to an Alzheimer's hospital if he cannot control himself.
