CALIFORNIA COURTS RECOGNIZE MEDICAL DISABILITIES IN EMPLOYEES
A long-time employee of Neiman Marcus claims she was fired after her carpal tunnel syndrome and other medical disabilities prevented her from being able to perform the functions of her job. Her doctor even confirmed her disabilities. At first, the employee was able to take time off using her sick leave and vacation time. Once that ran out, she claims Neiman Marcus fired her because it believe she would not be fit to return to her job.
If you suffer from a proven medical disability, your employer must recognize your disability by providing you with reasonable accommodations to perform your job and allowing you to take time off for medical appointments. An experienced employment lawyer can go over the other ways your employer cannot discriminate against you because of your medical disability.
