Please provide a brief explanation of the concern, issue, or question you would like to address with the Ombuds.
My name is Naomi, I am an employee with a psychiatric disability. After three years at my job, recent changes at work have affected my ability to do the work. I have requested reasonable accommodation from HR, but they are very slow to respond and they are not inclined to make the changes that I require in order to succeed at work. HR is also investigating a report that I made related to workplace retaliation and stigmatizing action against me. I'm concerned that this investigation (which I did not request) is interfering with the accommodation process and will ultimately adversely affect the decisions.
What are your goals for working with the Ombuds?
I am having a crisis in the workplace and I need a neutral person who is knowledgeable about employment policies and procedures to explain what I can do, what protections are available to me and how to communicate with HR and and handle a hostile workplace. I am afraid I will say or do something wrong because I do not understand how to proceed.
As I said, I do suffer from mental illness and I am experiencing a setback in my recovery do to these escalating conflicts at work.
