Does my employer have to
provide a pet dander/hair/urine
free company semitruck?
My employer issued me a company
truck. It was not cleaned or
detailed like the other new
employees got. Cats had been in
it. Cat hair, grease, stains
and ammonia smell has made me
itchy with rash, bleeding from
scratching watery eyes, and
burning nose and throat. I was
told bring the truck back for a
different one. It’s not normal
for zero cleaning. Can I be
fired for reporting allergic
reactions, saying I may need an
attorney? Does employer have a
duty to provide a sanitary
truck to operate and live in?
