OK to Suspend Injured Worker for Acting like a Jerk at Safety Meeting

A metal worker on temporary assignment after an injury is clearly not happy about having to attend an on-site CNESST Youth Squad safety training session. After conspicuously filing his nails to demonstrate indifference, he starts to act up criticizing the company and its management. The audience grows uneasy and the HR director asks him to leave. He defiantly refuses. The suspension that follows is a reprisal for his injury, the worker insists.
