Q: Case Dismissed without prejudice for Failure to State a Claim for Which Relief Can be Granted

If an employer makes a couple of discrepancies on employment record that prohibits employment within career field and neglected a federal regulation by law. If a requirement of a regulation specifies receiving "immediate" medical attention directly away from a scene as opposed to noticing an injury after leaving the scene then receiving medical attention which does not satisfy the "immediate" inference and the latter occurred. Would this prove to be a claim for which relief can be granted?
