OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE DISORDER (OCD) MIGHT BE A MEDICAL DISABILITY: CONTACT AN SF LAWYER FOR HELP
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder is a mental disability. OCD often manifests itself as obsessions or rituals that dominate the life of the individual diagnosed with OCD. Individuals with OCD do not have control over the desire to act on obsessions constantly in their mind. These obsessions often cause anxiety to the individual. Over 2 million Americans are affected by OCD.
If you have OCD, and feel that you have been discriminated against at work based on your OCD, you may have an employment claim. In order to bring a suit, you must have met three criteria: (1) your OCD results in physical limitations, (2) you can still perform the basic tasks of your job, and (3) your employer has discriminated against you based on your OCD.
Examples of discrimination based on your OCD may include: your employer not allowing you to miss work for medical appointments, not allowing you additional time to complete your assignments, your employer harassing you over your compulsions.
