$65,000 settles disability claim

ADVERTISEMENTS

A loan company will pay $65,000 to settle a disability discrimination suit filed by the EEOC.

EEOC charged that the company refused to allow an employee to return to work unless she submitted to a medical exam that would detect viruses. The company insisted that she take the exam after it became aware that her husband had a medical condition related to Hepatitis C.

This medical exam was not job-related, according to the EEOC, because any possible safety risk to others posed by the loan clerk?s job duties would be insignificant. The EEOC further alleged that when the employee refused to undergo the medical exam, the company discharged her because it regarded her as disabled due to her relationship with her husband.
