I’m not sure who to call about this issue so thought sharing my experience might get me some advice for where to call.
I went to my doctor for a appointment and my doctor told me I need to go to the hospital asap. He wrote me a note excusing my absence from work that night, (I only missed that shift and he excused me from work that night.)
I sent the note to my manger and she came back asking for a surgical report signed by the surgeon who saw me. I refused as that extremely personal information I didn’t feel comfortable sharing with my employer ans was informed it was illegal for them to ask for. This doesn’t affect my ability to work at all and I’m not asking to change anything.
Since I informed my manger I won’t be giving them a surgical report as that is illegal they have taken me off the schedule completely.
I have tried to contact her asking why I haven’t received the schedule snd I get no response.
I called the labour board and human rights commission and made a formal complaint about them asking for personal medical information. I feel as if I’m being punished for refusing to give that surgical report. Are they allowed to fire me over refusing to give that when I had a doctors note excusing my absence.
Unfortunately we don’t have HR or any upper management so I’m unsure who else to contact.
The reason for going to the doctor/ hospital was unrelated to work.
And I’ve been there longer then 3 months!
