[QUOTE="krs1958, post: 173946, member: 31107"] I'm a manager and I do most of the interviews with applicants. You can no longer have health questions on application forms but I don't know about heath questionnaires. My company HR department and my line manager know of my health issues and I do get understanding and support. I had a negative response from a senior manager. His knowledge of diabetes came from the fact a friend of his has it and I was told you will get worse. Also with my life style he was not surprised I had the condition in addition to the heart problem. He does not know of my medical history and I did make it known to the HR manager I was offended by his reaction. We employ a fair number of people with type 2 and none of them have any problems with doing their jobs. Being a type 2 myself has given me empathy with any issues and the need for any time of for appointments. [/QUOTE]
