This past evening I was reprimanded by my employer for "leaning on the wall" for several minutes. Well, I'm 63, and being on my feet for hours at a time is somewhat strenuous (but the effects may not rise to the level of a disability). I was told that I would need a "letter of accommodation" from a doctor, subsequently approved by the HR dept, to continue the practice. Given that older workers seem to be becoming a larger part of the workforce, should not employers attempt to accommodate them?
Too bad you aren’t a black gay Muslim transgender. Could have hit the Superfecta of discrimination lawsuits. Sorry, But since you’re just an aging white guy you’re screwed
A white guy will get reprimanded for leaning on a wall. Any of the “protected class” wouldn’t because it would be deemed racist/sexist/homophobic/anti-whatever and managers don’t want that so they would look the other way for minor infractions. Just the way it is
An formal accommodation request is a distinction in HR circles backed up by employer/employee disability law. This has nothing to do with race or religion or anything else Clubber Lang would like to make it out to be.
Wait what? This is the fastest contradiction by anyone on ET ever. Come on, just say what you want to say. You don't get points for pushing a narrative on an anonymous internet forum.
