2021-1-08-UFF-PSCFA-press-release-FINAL

Legal services have been retained to represent the United Faculty of Florida, Pensacola State College Chapter Faculty and Staff members who are being denied requests for reasonable accommodations, i.e., to work from home rather than on campus, due to having an illness or condition that causes an increased risk of severe illness from the virus that causes COVID-19.  The two letters below were sent to the Pensacola State College President informing of the potential violation of statues.

“If you are hearing of members forced to work in person when they are high risk or have been denied an ADA request, please get in touch with your field staff labor relations person.”

Candi Churchill, Executive Director of United Faculty of Florida
