Absolutely DO NOT TRY FOR A MEDICAL EXEMPTION
You will get denied.
I recently met with a lawyer who specifically said not to submit a medical AND religious exemption.
ONLY SUBMIT A RELIGIOUS EXEMPTION
Anyone who tells you differently is completely uninformed.
Religion is considered a “protected class” under the civil rights act. Medical stuff is not.
So what you need to do is write a religious exemption in your own words—one that is SINCERE.
Employers can reject your letter if they discover you copy&pasted from a template.
IT MUST BE SINCERE
Please head this warning. My mother in law was rejected because she submitted a medical exemption before her religious exemption. She was fired.
Thanks for the post adding it to the ammo.
Not to spoil anything, but we've initiated contact (today in fact!) with the lawyer who (by my understanding) is responsible for getting the city of Gainesville, Fl's mandates overturned (posted here recently).
Again, I don't like to speak before the work is done or well underway, and my spouse is the big brains of the operation, but I am cataloging and working through dozens of posts like this here to try to get some definitive legalities and strategies outlined.
