A member asked:
Is depression a disability that can be disclosed at work?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Contextual: It truly depends on the line of work. Some professions require one to disclose their mental health history for job safety concerns. If you are wanting to take sick days for the condition, you may be required to disclose the reason - please refer to your employee handbook.
