@doilycoffins @wickednewshub I feel inspired to have S T F U on my mantle next year.

@SIscores is there a livestream?

THIS is cancer awareness: Get checked, know your workplace rights, and exercise them. Do all of this for yourself and others.

[Jenna Nicoletti Williams @jennarwilliams]

I will stand by my claim that several decisions made by my former employer (and the employees directly involved) were a series of calculated and callous moves.

[Jenna Nicoletti Williams @jennarwilliams]

wrongfully terminating me while undergoing critical, life-saving cancer treatment!

[Jenna Nicoletti Williams @jennarwilliams]

My arbitration demand is for disability/medical discrimination & wrongful termination because I believe the company violated CA employment laws by failing to provide reasonable accommodations, failing to engage in the required interactive dialogue, & wrongfully terminating me...

[Jenna Nicoletti Williams @jennarwilliams]

However, it does not mean that I gave up my rights or protections under California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA), which prohibits discrimination based on my disability. Discrimination is not simply acceptable because someone’s performance is judged to be low.

[Jenna Nicoletti Williams @jennarwilliams]

I will be 100% transparent: I received an M- “not meeting expectations” initial performance review 6 months into my employment.

(By the way, my second review was completed without my involvement while I was on leave beginning chemotherapy -pictured.)

[Jenna Nicoletti Williams @jennarwilliams]

I believe I was set up to fail before I even began my LOA.

(This is the second day in a series of posts in which I will explain why I filed this arbitration demand and why no cancer survivor—or anyone for that matter—should stand for discrimination by their employer.)

[Jenna Nicoletti Williams @jennarwilliams]

My manager told me I was “not in the right role” just days after I informed the company of my diagnosis and only 4 days before my company-approved leave of absence to undergo a double mastectomy (which was followed by 8 months of chemotherapy and radiation).

[Jenna Nicoletti Williams @jennarwilliams]

My year on the job was challenging and rewarding, and I would not trade it for anything.

But then the unthinkable happened.

[Jenna Nicoletti Williams @jennarwilliams]

I joined the company in February 2022 as a Learning Development Program Manager in the Trust & Safety organization and worked alongside the strongest, most dedicated people who wanted the platform to be safe for everyone.

@MLB @Dodgers still so surreal

Backstory:
I was diagnosed with Stage 3 Breast Cancer in Jan 2023, which was devastating & considered high risk due to my age, lack of family history, and metastasis to multiple lymph nodes.
After rapid diagnostics, began a company-approved leave of absence on Feb 7, 2023.

[Jenna Nicoletti Williams @jennarwilliams]

Today, I wrapped up Breast Cancer Awareness Month by filing an arbitration demand against my former employer for alleged discrimination and wrongful termination after my breast cancer diagnosis and life-saving treatment.
