Are Mental Health Issues WC Capable?

[Redstone]

I was wondering,,, This is for Wisconsin.

If the employer knew of a mental illness that a employee has, But it never has effected the employees ability to do their job.

And the employer changes a policy of the company, that now the policy greatly effects the employees ability to do their job, and they will not flex at all on this policy, that it eventually causes the employee to loose their job. Is this a WC case?

no. there has been no injury to the employee caused by the job.
might be a case of discrimination.
