Speak to a workers compensation attorney, make sure you document the injury and see a medical provider and make sure they know it happened at work.

You should be very careful about recording people in private areas without their knowledge in Florida it could be a crime and you need to know what private vs public means, etc. At this point, I would speak to an attorney but you may or may not have a case depending on what type of discrimination....

If you were out sick due to COVID-19 and coronavirus testing, you could take up to 2 weeks of paid leave if you request it correctly from the company. You should document your medical leave with doctors' notes and request plus you should speak to an employment attorney to make sure you're... View More

If you worked you should be paid. Contact an attorney to look over all the details or you can file a lawsuit on your own but many attorneys would be willing to help. Best wishes.
