Default Disability Act _ Harrassment
Does anybody know what the legal test is to qualify as a hostile work environment in retaliation for taking time when ill under the Disability Act?

Great question. Terrible situation to be in
Have you done some digging to see if your state has a Information and Assistance Unit as a part of the Division of Workers' Compensation? (I'm using California terms- your state might have different wording)
I would start with the Division of Workers' Compensation website and do some digging until you find an advocate department of some sort to give you a clear idea of how to proceed.
Good luck!!

Are you speaking of ADA, FMLA, or worker's compensation?

I am referring to ADA since my employer is not covered under FMLA. I can't find anything for NYS on worker's comp.
