Multiple sclerosis, or MS, is an autoimmune condition in which the immune system attacks the central nervous system, affecting the ability of nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord to communicate with each other. MS is more common in females and usually appears in individuals when they are young adults. Many CA employees suffer from MS.

California and federal employment laws protect you if your MS has become a disability at your place of work. First, in order to receive the benefits of these laws, you must show your employer that you are disabled as a result of your condition. If you have demonstrated that you are disabled to your employer, he cannot discriminate against you because of your disability, or for any other reason.

Ways your employer might discriminate against you include:

• Not allowing you to miss work for doctors’ appointments
• Not providing you with reasonable on-site accommodations for your narcolepsy
• Not accommodating your need to take periodic naps
