I’m not allowed to buy my own office chair, did I accept an offer the company meant to withdraw, and more

Ask a Manager

I’m not allowed to buy my own office chair. Having big issues with my back pain and several scary looking diagnoses, I asked our manager if I can buy an ergonomic chair with high adjustability and pay for it myself. The answer was “no, I am not sure we are insured for this.” What are my rights and options in this regard?

I was able to flag my mentor’s attention and step out, thankfully, but it had me wondering, what should I do in the future if something like this happens during a meeting I can’t leave? They explained they prefer full-time in office, so this equipment policy seems to be promoting people to come in five days per week.
