Are There Legal Protections for Employees with Cancer?
Yes, there are several legal protections for employees with cancer. In many countries, laws such as the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in the United States protect individuals with cancer from discrimination in the workplace. These laws require employers to provide reasonable accommodations to help employees perform their job duties. Additionally, the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) allows eligible employees to take unpaid, job-protected leave for medical reasons.
