Protected from repercussions from what? Do you mean to be saying certain reasonable accommodations are to be granted where possible? Having a mental disorder or disability does not mean an employer cannot reprimand or take corrective action in the face of unsatisfactory work. It just means the employer in need of something I might be able to do is obligated to give me an honest, "equal opportunity" even if, when or where some reasonable accommodation might be necessary.
