| Response from Ms. Gabriel Dr. Young has referred your question to the Workplace Forum. The answer to your second question is easy: yes, it is illegal to discriminate againt an employee (or prospective employee) because of a disability. The answer to the first part of your question is no. An employer cannot require an HIV test, it's none of their business. An employer (or prospective employer) can ask you if are able to complete the essential functions of your job with or without a reasonable accomodation but cannot ask you about your medical condition.
