Practice question
A firm has an internal anti-stigma rule but rejects every request for treatment-related or psychosocial assistance because it says Section 25 covers only negative discrimination. Assume no dispute about what additional clinical benefits other laws require. Does its reading account for the whole provision?
- No; Section 25 also calls for identifying and providing support for persons with mental-health conditions
- Yes; preventing stigma is the provision’s sole subject
- Yes; the statute prohibits psychosocial support
- Yes; an anti-stigma rule cancels the program duty
- Yes; employee assistance may never relate to treatment
