Another US Company Fires Employee For Being Hiv-positive by nutripot: 11:47am On Oct 01, 2015
A Subway franchise in Indiana is being sued in federal court for allegedly firing an employee for being HIV-positive. Data from (www.aids.gov) a reliable US site says that more than 1.2 million people in the United States are living with HIV infection.

The lawsuit was brought by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, which says that the sandwich shop fired the employee, who is named in the lawsuit as John Doe, after he told his boss that he is HIV positive.

Reliable information reaching us say that the supervisor responded by telling the employee, “What if you cut yourself while working?” and “What if our customers find out?”
This conversation happened on January 13th, twelve days after Doe was hired at the Subway franchise. On February 14th, his supervisor informed him that the franchise manager felt that he could pose a liability to the company, and terminated his employment.
