In One Year's Time, James Developed Gall Bladder Problems and Needed

question 142

True/False

In one year's time, James developed gall bladder problems and needed surgery; he became a single parent; he willingly moved his older mom in to live with him in order to avoid placing her in a nursing home; and he unexpectedly tore his rotator cuff playing softball during the summer. Overall, these are not considered circumstances that impact job performance because they fall outside of the workplace. HR managers need only be concerned with how James performs when he is at work.
