Waiter fired from restaurant after telling boss he had COVID-19, Michigan lawsuit says
A waiter lost his job after telling the Michigan restaurant he tested positive for the coronavirus, a lawsuit says.
Nicolas Prada, who also worked as an assistant manager, accuses the owner of Tomukun Noodle Bar in Ann Arbor of firing him after he disclosed the positive test for COVID-19, according to a federal lawsuit filed Friday. The restaurant also declined to pay the employee sick leave as required under laws during the pandemic, the lawsuit says.
The restaurant owner did not respond to a request for comment by McClatchy News. He declined to comment for a story about the lawsuit by The Detroit News.
Prada became ill in late June and called in sick to work, the lawsuit says. He tested positive for COVID-19 several days later.
