Eh, it's reasonable for an employer to ask some follow-up questions.
If a guy asks for a special chair because they've got an injury? I probably ought to check whether they're OK standing for long periods, whether they're OK with carrying heavy things, whether they're able to self-evacuate in a fire, etc.
- no_wizard 2y agoWhat they're allowed to ask is already outlined in the guidelines. They often do ask questions if you don't preempt possible ones. There is a limit and a line though. What Amazon is doing here is actually pushing the line much further than most employers do in my experience, especially big corporations. usually, they'll simply take the recommendation the medical professional gives at face value. Amazon is purportedly not doing that. In fact, the way they worded it, I can't help be feel at least a slight annoyance they even have to accomidate disabilities to begin with.
