CYSTIC FIBROSIS IN THE CA WORKPLACE
Cystic fibrosis is an inherited chronic disease that affects the lungs and digestive system of about 30,000 children and adults in the United States, many of them California employees. Caused by a defective, and hereditary gene and its protein product, the body produces unusually thick, sticky mucus that clogs the lungs and leads to life-threatening lung infections. This mucus also gets in the way of the pancreas and prevents natural enzymes from helping the body break down and absorb food.
If you are a California employee with CF, it is against the law for your employer to discriminate against you because of your disease. If you believe you are the victim of workplace discrimination, you must first show that because of your CF you are disabled or regarded as disabled. An experienced employment lawyer can walk you through this process.
