Toxic work environments are often the cause or major contributing factor to the anxiety-related symptoms
For some Canadians, working from home during the pandemic provided relief. However, this was not a cure. Rather, symptoms may have decreased as there was less opportunity for conflict. Many employers are now asking employees to physically return to the workplace either fully or with a hybrid arrangement. If you cannot perform the essential tasks of your employment if forced back to the workplace, here is the scoop.
If you are covered under a short-term or long-term disability policy, you will have a valid claim if you can establish that you are unable to perform the essential tasks of your employment because of a sickness or illness such as anxiety. Three forms are required to be submitted to the disability insurer. These are an employee statement, an employer statement and a physician statement.
Disability claims for anxiety and depression are often denied by insurance companies on the basis that there is insufficient evidence. Therefore, it is important to try to keep a journal of the symptoms and regularly consult with treating physicians and therapists.Human-rights legislation imposes a duty on employers to accommodate both physical and mental disabilities of employees. The duty is not without limits but is instead up to the point of undue hardship for an employer to accommodate.
