Description

A part-time employee in the library services sector reports experiencing disability discrimination and harassment in the workplace. After suffering a minor work injury and successfully completing their shift before seeking treatment, they were placed on unpaid leave and instructed not to return until providing a medical clearance for a task unrelated to their job description—a requirement not applied to similarly situated coworkers without the disability. The employee, who has consistently met or exceeded job expectations and was previously well-regarded at their location, expresses concern about potential employment termination and seeks guidance on protecting their job and advancement opportunities.
