上班去廁所乃是人之常情。美國亞馬遜(Amazon)一名女員工,因爲患有腸易激症候群,每天必須去6次廁所,但遭公司解僱。該名女員工以歧視爲由,向紐澤西高等法院控告亞馬遜。

 

該名女員工以歧視爲由,向紐澤西高等法院控告亞馬遜。

 

根據美國媒體《商業内幕》的報導,亞馬遜前女員工Maria Iris Jennitte Olivero20207月加入亞馬遜,她聲稱自己患有腸易激症候群,同年11月向上司報告病況,並請求提高上廁所的准許次數至每天最多6次。上司要求事主5天内提交醫生證明;而在美國預約看醫生,需要等待多天的時間。事主已即時向上司反映說看診時間是在6天後,無法在限期内提交醫生證明,但依然遭到亞馬遜解僱。

 

事後該名女員工向紐澤西高等法院控告亞馬遜違反《反歧視法》

 

事後該名女員工向紐澤西高等法院控告亞馬遜違反《反歧視法》,而亞馬遜指預期Olivero要求的賠償金額高達75,000美元(折合港幣約58萬元),所以決定將案件提交到聯邦法院審理。
