    Multiple chemical sensitivity is not recognised by any medical body as a testable or valid diagnosis for illness, therefore employers are not required to recognise it as a disability or long term illness.

    Depends if this hypothetical condition was cause by the Hypothetical employment, or Hypothetical predates the employment.

    Hypothetical, one is in a new employment, and discovers that one cannot fulfill the requirements of the position, one would not make it past the probation period before one is let go.

    If one was in a position for period, and a change in practice at the work location causes a Hypothetical condition, one might have a case for forcing the employers to resolve the issue.

    If a Hypothetical employment cases a Hypothetical condition over a number of years, it kind of depends on it there is any Hypothetical negligence on anyone.

    If either the the later two situation, some Hypothetical consultation with a Hypothetical Doctor, followed by a Hypothetical solicitor would be best advised.
