What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
I have been diagnosed with an anxiety disorder and at work I have recently been moved to to a new space, and the way things are setup there is no way for me to sit and do my job without my back facing a doorway opening up to a fairly busy hallway. The best I can do is sit so that the door is at roughly my 7 o'clock and it is about 3 - 4 feet away from me.
It's been this way for several weeks and while I've been trying to get things fixed so far it doesn't seem to be a priority with my employer. Seems it's either tied up in bureaucracy or someone is hoping I forget about it.
It seems to me like it may be a violation of the ADA...how long is reasonable for something like this to be addressed?
Can they simply say "keep your door closed all the time" and have that be considered a fix?
All I'm asking for is a simple computer stand at my 9 o'clock so I can sit and work there which would have me sitting with the doorway at my 11 o'clock. This is roughly how my previous workspace was setup and it worked out quite well for 4.5 years here.What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
