I am an administrative employee with the California state university system and have an exemplary work history and attendance record. Eight months ago a new supervisor was assigned to our section. She was not very familiar with the nature of job, manipulative, short tempered, and verbally abusive. When I stood up for my rights and protested, she ratcheted up the tension and embarked upon a full-scale bullying campaign against me. I, and others as well, have made several complaints to her supervisor(s) and to the HR -- but to no avail. I have made several reassignment requests, but again without any success. I have also filed a grievance, but that’s not going anywhere either.
All of this has taken a tremendous toll on my overall health. I was out for a month on stress leave, but when I returned, my symptoms pretty much came back. My treating physician agrees that I’m suffering from a stress disorder.
My question is the following: Would it be possible to obtain work restrictions stating that my health is in jeopardy if I continue working under the same supervisor and requesting reassignment?
If not, what would be the best option to tackle this dilemma? Simply put, my health is deteriorating, I cannot afford to quit, and I’m at the end of my rope.
Thanks in advance for all your responses.
