Alex is a software developer at Tech Innovations Inc. He has been with the company for

five years and consistently received positive performance reviews. Recently, Alex was

diagnosed with a chronic back condition that limits his ability to sit for long periods. After

receiving the diagnosis, Alex requested a standing desk and a more flexible work

schedule to accommodate his condition.

Tech Innovations Inc. agreed to provide the standing desk but denied the request for a

flexible work schedule, stating that all developers need to be available during regular

business hours for team meetings and collaboration. Alex believes this decision is

discriminatory and has filed a complaint with HR$.$
