Practice question
A medical clearance establishes that a worker is fit to work but says nothing about whether the employer refused an assignment. The worker treats it as conclusive proof of the refusal. What distinction matters?
- The certificate automatically proves all pleaded events
- Every fitness certificate proves dismissal
- A doctor necessarily witnessed every employer decision
- Fitness and the employer’s alleged act are different facts requiring relevant support
- Only the medical certificate’s length matters
