In brief &#8211; the answer is yes. If your company is unhappy with the performance of an employee due to a mental health illness. By law, you must find a fair reason for dismissal. This reason may be that the employee is incapable of carrying out their job properly or the absence of the employee is affecting the business performance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Alternatively, <strong>if the employee&#8217;s mental health disorder is classified as a disability, unfair mental health dismissal is illegal under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)<\/strong>. In this situation, an employer must make any necessary changes to how the employee is working in order to improve their mental state. Employers can do this by adjusting working hours, offering appropriate aid such as software, or physical features in the office, such as disability aid.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"exacc_-MVCYonXC4387_UP4oyPwAo2\" class=\"MBtdbb\" data-ved=\"2ahUKEwiJs5mK9ur2AhUN_rsIHWLGA6gQ7NUEegQIFRAD\">\n<div class=\"ymu2Hb\">\n<div id=\"_-MVCYonXC4387_UP4oyPwAo23\" class=\"t0bRye r2fjmd\" data-hveid=\"CBUQBA\" data-ved=\"2ahUKEwiJs5mK9ur2AhUN_rsIHWLGA6gQu04oAHoECBUQBA\">\n<div id=\"WEB_ANSWERS_RESULT_9_-MVCYonXC4387_UP4oyPwAo__22\">\n<div class=\"wDYxhc\" data-md=\"61\">\n<p><a name=\"Leave\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Mental Health Leave in the US<\/h2>\n<div role=\"heading\" data-attrid=\"wa:\/description\" aria-level=\"3\" data-hveid=\"CAgQAA\">Under the Family Medical Leave Act of 1993 (FMLA), <strong>employees may legally take time off for medical needs, including mental health.<\/strong>\u00a0 FMLA states that employees are entitled to 12 weeks of unpaid leave during this time.
