She might be missing that point.<br /><br />If planned carefully, you could sue her without losing your confidentiality. I hope PozziePinoy could help.<br /><br />I also agree with Prof Porn.Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14055701751171908373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5174703207608305975.post-88525092960521883532013-11-25T06:58:00.465-08:002013-11-25T06:58:00.465-08:00She's bound by law not to disclose your condit...She's bound by law not to disclose your condition unless it's with your expression permission. Inform her that you will file an administrative complaint with the Philippine Medical Assoc (PMA) if she tells anyone your status. Bring a copy of that HIV law printed out and show it to her, and use a mildly threatening tone para ma-convince siya.<br /><br />Furthermore, there are guidelines used by doctors in assessing whether a patient is fit or unfit to work, I'm not completely sure, pero I believe HIV does not fall under 'unfit.' It's not right na 'pagiisipan niya' because it's not a subjective decision on her part. In other words, any reservations she might have about your fitness to work is personal/moral, there's no legal or medical basis. Try to find a copy of those local guidelines and bring a copy with you.<br /><br />Of course, all of this is premised on the assumption that you really want that job and are willing to fight for it. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
