Are you in the Uk ? If so you should be protected - they would have to send you for Ann occupational health assessment re your fitness to work - if between you and them you can agree on a time you'll be fit to go back along with any reasonable adjustments then you should be ok - depends in part on the size of your company , number of employees etc . If not fit to return to previous job even with reasonable adjustments is there alternative role they can offer you. If you are not fit to return , may not ever be then ultimately they can terminate on grounds of ill health - most companies are pretty supportive and keen to obey the letter of the law and you should have a graduated return after a long time off - hope this helps ? If you are not in UK then I'm not sure if the legislation sorry - big hug xxxx
