Hi all,

I just got a job with Delta airlines and I had an accomodation request to work remotely as I am Immunocompromised. I provided all the neccesary documents to back up my request and letters and documents from my Dr. aswell. My request was denied because the team said they wanted me to have face time and one on one interactions with people from other team (which defeats the purpose of my request) because I have to limit those interactions to reduce the risk of infection. What do I do?

I would remind them that being immunocompromised is covered under American's with Disabilities Act (ADA), and ask them to make reasonable accommodations for you. If they are unwilling to allow you to work remotely, then maybe they can provide you with a workspace to minimize face-to-face contact with others, move you to another position which allows social distancing, or allow a hybrid schedule. If you really prefer to work fully remote, maybe they would be willing to write up a contract that allows you to work remotely "until the threat of Covid is over" or decide on a reasonable end date.

I don’t know the answer, but Delta is my favorite airline.

Delta is pretty adamant about their resources reporting to offices. I’m pretty sure they still have managers that have the old mindset of wanting their finger on their employees. They could get some amazing talent if they would allow remote. I’d probably hop over there for the travel benefits. I’d travel the world free while working. Pretty much travel full time now working remotely, but flight benefits would make it even better (if you can get a non-rev flight now).

Hello! Looking for some guidance. I will soon be leaving Verizon after 15 years with them (6 years HR experience, 3 years Operations, 6 years leadership).

But the likes of Google, Adobe, etc. also seem appealing. Would you recommend a start up as my next endeavor? I enjoy helping build processes and policies.

Im worried it'll just make things worse since none of it is "wrong", just rude and insensitive.
