no, not legally so make sure you do every thing by the book in your new dept. and keep records (dates and times)of any thing you find suspicious regarding your employers behavior towards you. he/she might be setting you up for a fall to fire you in a legal manner. and remember the dept of labor is there for this reason You can not be fired for being on workmans comp but you can be fired for not doing your job tasks according to company guidelines within your light duty limits.
