Misty was a great temp employee who was on her way to being offered a full time position....until she revealed she needed extra bathroom breaks. Welcome to HR Stories.....where the lesson is in the story. In this episode we talk about the Americans with Disabilities Act, reasonable accommodations, and what happens when companies do pay attention to the law.

The viewpoints expressed by the characters in the stories are not necessarily that of The Team at HR Stories. The stories are shared to present various, real-world scenarios and share how they were handled by policy and, at times, law. Chuck and John are not lawyers and always recommend working with an employment lawyer to address concerns.
