PLEASE READ THIS
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.
That explains why it's not beneficial
Why not try anyways?
Because if you try for medical and it is rejected, it hurts your chances on getting a religious exemption accepted.
