If the employee was in a "work at will" job, then that employee can be fired, or quit for any reason or no reason at all, and without notice. General exceptions to this are union or contract employees that have something in their contract that covers this.
Additionally, there are laws and regulations that differ by state that address "job abandonment". In some states, if you are unable to work and do not call in within a set number of days, that is considered abandonment.
In order to protect yourself, it would be a good idea to understand your rights and responsibilities in the country/state/province that you are employing people. Contact your attorney.
Lastly, it would make sense that DCF would want verification from an employer. But I would guess that it would come directly from DCF. |

You should contact your local SBA. Did you know that she was in the hospital? Did you pay her while she was there and then fire her afterwards? Too much info is missing |
