Hi An Acquaintance of mine was working with a fortune 500 manufacturing co. in admin. He got an offer from another fortune 500 mfg co. in admin. The co. that made an offer was following up with him to put his resignation in the current co. and to join them at the earliest. He resigned and after having released from the current co. he went for the pre employment medical for the new company. In the pre employment medical everything was normal except for his BP being very high. The hospital informed the new company on the telephone of their findings. The executive from the new company told him they will wait to receive the medical reports. Its been a week since the medical has been completed but the new company is not reverting back. No response to emails too. This situation is definately not helping my acquaitance. he is on medication to keep the BP normal and the stress of having left the earlier job and with no assurance of the new one is shooting his BP up. My question is, can a company refuse employment cuz of high BP. Advise, opinions, suggestions from esteemed industry colleagues will be highly appreciated. Regards Richa
