He doesn't have short or long term disability benefits.
He has only worked there about 8 months - so does not qualify for FMLA. My understanding is you have to have worked somewhere for 12 months. The company has enough employees to qualify.
They haven't "fired" him. They just refuse to give him any hours because he has work restrictions. That in all reality will not prevent him from doing his job. That's the part that is really irritating, there is no reason they are doing what they are doing. If he couldn't do the job, that would be one thing, but that isn't the case. They pretty much said until he can stand for 8 hours straight they won't give him any hours.
