MY CA EMPLOYER MADE ACCOMODATIONS FOR MY DISABILTY, BUT THEN HE TOOK THEM AWAY!
California labor law protects employees from being discriminated against because they suffer from a recognized medical disability. Whether you have cancer or depression, if you have a recognized medical disability and you have informed your employer, it is up to him to provide you with reasonable accommodations for your disability so that you can still perform the functions of your job. In addition, he cannot use your medical disability as a reason to fire you, demote you, or not promote you.
When a woman at a local grocery store was provided with reasonable accommodations for her throat cancer, she was excited and able to perform her job and receive pay. However, when a new manager arrived, he was not filled in on the accommodations given to her and did not let her take the breaks she needed. As a result, she suffered some trauma and decided to take legal action. With the help of an experienced employment attorney, she won hundreds of thousands of dollars in damages.
