Grocery store in Florida. Boss was on medical leave from a workers comp injury. $1 an hour pay increase and temp title was given. It has been a year. The manager is now coming back next week full time and full duty. Can the company cut the $1 an hour pay increase? And the bonuses he has been getting the last year?

Yes, because the additional pay and bonuses were for the additional duties he assumed during his temporary position as manager, due to his boss' absence. I would assume that when the manager returns, your bf will be returned to his former position as assistant manager, with the compensation plan that goes along with that position. Just look at it as a great experience that builds his resume and makes him more likely to be promoted to manager when there's a future opening he applies for.
