Severance Pay and Employment Reputation

My company says that they had cause to fire me. When I complained, they said that they agreed with me, but couldn’t change their decision to terminate me. Can I still get severance pay?

Chapter 11:

Return to Same Job After Disability Leave

I’ve been working in HR at a large company for 10 years. The last 2 years have been spent on long-term disability following a car accident. Am I allowed to return to the job I had before I took my disability leave?
