Question-School HR only offered me to take unpaid medical leave and I had to use 26 sick days over four months to maintain my medical insurance . They knew my disability was based on not being able to wear a mask. They warned me that I would have to pay full med benifits as of End of year if I didn’t come back to work. Masks were still required to enter the building. The previous year I worked from home for mentioning i could not wear a mask. Is no pay accommodation effective? Well not for this 62 year old single woman. That was my job they didn’t like my view on mask efficacy. Terminated me for job abandonment because they didn’t want me to work from home. Paraprofessionals dont abandon their students. We get kicked bit hair pulled spit on yelled at hands mauled by students nails and still go back to help.
Can a employer denied you a reasonable accommodation for a reason and when you explain them, can they then change the reason after you appeal the denial?
