Thought we were protected under HIPPA
Why are they asking this question then pretend to better themselves as an equal opportunity employer
This whole nightmare needs to end and shut down all the shell games immediately!!

Clearly we all know you have a disability so answer the question CORRECTLY and get back to work.
It’s always been that way. HIPPA is irrelevant, because it’s a VOLUNTARY self-id of disability. You don’t have to put anything down, even if you do have a disability. EEO is required by law, and if you’ll notice they didn’t ask you that question prior to you being hired.
This is HR fishing to see if you’re in a protected class - if you answer yes, they will group you in that protected class which makes it more difficult to terminate you. I would answer yes.
