Disability Rating (sc)...do You Have To Disclose To Employer?

Rate this question


MDB1968NM

Question

Hi everyone,

If this is not the right area then Mods please move this.

If someone is applying for a job after military retirement and they are disabled (SC), does that have to be disclosed to the employer?  The reason I ask is that many govt jobs ask if you are applying for preference.  Would the employer need to know what your disabilities are, OR, would they just have to know your rating percentage if that?

I would think that some employers might hold having a disability against the potential job seeker in certain instances.  Has anyone had any direct experience with this?

Thanks for the information in advance!

;)

You could bring them medical records of your choice. They probably just want to make sure you can pass the physical and are not going to file a workers compensation case against them in a couple of years, or take disability retirement after minimum time limit. I think I would just answer what you have to answer and don't volunteer your medical records unless they insist and your job is on the line.
