Re: discrimination and defamation by employer
There are not enough facts to answer this question. It may be necessary to consult with an attorney. However, certain information is protected by various privacy laws such as HIPAA but it may be necessary to share this information with individuals on a "need to know basis". In addition, you may be entitled to certain protections under the ADA and FMLA.
