This may help.Or whatever.
That "whatever" would worry me.

I have a vision that we will figure out an easy way to ensure that children develop wide, deep, healthy and attractive jaws and then obstructive sleep apnea becomes an obscure bit of history.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ycw4uaX ... re=related

At my company HR won't even let us know if a co worker is in the hospital so we can send a get well card.
Birth announcements are also a no-no.
I understand and approve of what HIPPA is supposed to do, but if your workplace is supposed to be a second family, HIPPA sure makes it so impersonal.......

I'm with Joel. Use Hipaa and medical privacy concerns.

Does anyone have access to a written form of this HIPPA and or privacy statements that specifically say "employer"?
