The short answer is it depends unfortunately.  Details about the employment, and the injury are needed in order to perform a complete analysis of the situation.  I recommend sitting down with an attorney to review.

Can you treat a person with a medical disability differently at a restaurant?

Answered 4 years and 10 months ago by Andrew Allen Popp (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer
Your situation is actually where the restaurant did not treat her differently from anyone else.  Since it's a privately owned company they are within their rights in this regard.  Additionally, nobody suffered any injury or pecuniary damages as a result of the incident.  The company has a legal responsibility to ensure the safety of its employees and patrons.  They are not in a position to dispute a medical condition someone claims they have.  If someone does not want to follow the rules of the restaurant, they are free to patronize another establishment....

Hello Jim, It looks like your question got cut off.  In order for any attorney to be able to intelligently evaluate the entirety of the situation and attempt to give you options and estimate the liklihood of success a full consultation is needed.  It's likely that even that will not be enough.  It's unclear as to what possible causes of action exist and what damages may be recoverable.  If the case needs to proceed under federal statutes the costs of litigation are significantly higher.  In this instance I would not worry about costs up front.  Speak with a qualified attorney.  Many offices will have alternate arrangement (such as contingency fee) that may be available depending on how the case would need to proceed. Best of luck.... Read More

This is a really untested area of law. The face coverings are for the protection of others as much as yourself. The employer would have a strong argument that the health and safety of others in preventing the spread of COVID is of greater importance than your shortness of breath. I can see disagreement on this, as it comes down to a policy consideration.... Read More
