Career limitations with crohns and remicade

Hi everyone !

I just recently went through the grueling interview process to be a flight attendant for Air Transat (Canadian aviation company) and got all the way to the medical tests. I am SO worried because I have Crohn's disease but it's totally under control. I'm treated with Remicade and have zero side effects. I was honest in the medical and said I have crohns and have been hospitalized with it before.. Do you think they will hire me anyways? ANY information on this subject would be extremely helpful.

Thank you so much !

I can't comment on your situation, but am very curious to know how this works out. I'm sure many of us will face this and would be eager to hear that we're not going to be discriminated against. Good Luck with the job. Hope you get it, and it works out for you.

They legally cannot discriminate based on having crohns alone as you are protected under the equality act 2010 as it is a disability. If you didn't get the job but passed everything else you needed to then you would have grounds for appeal. Good luck!
