Case Overview
This case involves an employee at a Fortune 500 company who suffered from ADHD and ADD, among other issues, which prevented him from focusing for an extended period of time without treatment. He was frequently bullied and hassled by a direct supervisor after the employee requested to be transferred to another department where his disability would have been less of an impediment. The employee was regularly ridiculed by the superior during department meetings and in electronic communications, which caused stress that allegedly exacerbated the symptoms of his ADD/ADHD. The employee eventually had to leave work due to the repeated harassment, and was forced to survive on disability.
