If two hands is the main issue, do you get half pay for work if you only have one.

Realistically speaking... doubt you would even get hired at my workplace; that comment just made think through the entire 2-3 campuses of staff and I don't think we have "anyone" that is missing a limb.

We do have folks in wheel-chairs... but they have their hands.

My "guess" is that HR would simply pre-screen them out, never even make it to the interviewer.

which is discrimination and illegal in some places but does still happen

I mean if you physically can't do the job how can you expect anyone to hire you? No point in wasting time for an interview then either.

I don’t see how missing a limb would stop you from working a desk job, the only issue I can think of is typing speed, as if that matters in most jobs anyway.
