CA Pharmacy Manager
Federal law requires employers to provide reasonable accommodation to qualified individuals with disabilities. If you require assistance to apply for this job, please contact us by clicking AA EEO CVS Health
Read the PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS for being a CVS PIC. Does it sound like there could be any “accommodations” for anyone ? As I remember the employment laws, a company can’t ask an certain questions about a applicant before they are offered/accepted a job. Of course, if a applicant voluntarily divulges some “private information” before the job is offered.. like you will need some accommodations.. it can be used against the applicant in the hiring process. Of course, by clicking on the click within the job ad.. that you have a disability… chances of being hired because of the required accommodations are probably between SLIM and NONE !
Being on the “CVS TEAM” seems to be similar to getting on just about any team that require a high degree of physical abilities. Maybe the Pharmacy schools need to reevaluate their protocol of who they accept… to include certain physical attributes and/or capabilities.

Seems this particular ad has disappeared from Indeed.com. Wish I knew how someone was able to hack into this site and post what more accurately portrays the CVS culture. CVS treats most folks over 50 with dismissiveness and disrespect that borders on contempt.
What “small parts” does one have to visually inspect?
I would assume the tiny writing on bottles. So in other words I guess no one older who’s losing their vision.
This is real just looked up CVS pharmacist positions in California & on Indeed.com it has the same exact post! Post was put up 3 days ago for Pasadena, CA!
I am not on Facebook, but could someone please post this on the CVS Facebook page and ask if this is “for real”? This poorly written and grammatically incorrect listing of “physical essential functions” does not appear in every CVS job description. I still don’t know what “fingering” is, but it sounds obscene.
They forgot to put clean the toilets & then run back & give immunizations to all patients waiting! Have had several store managers tell me that the pharmacy personnel needs to clean the bathrooms! Someone ought to forward this to a lawyer bc they are discriminating against everyone with this job description!
I’m sure the minute you walk in for an interview, they size you up and have that picture in their head and ding you right then and there but don’t tell you because it’s an EEOC/ADA violation
In other words, no human being need apply
How does this not violate the ADA? Or EEOC? These requirements probably exclude anyone over 50, folks who are shorter or taller than average, wear hearing aids or glasses, have a limp, have English as a second language, or is pregnant. We are already aware that we are not allowed to sit (except on rare times when you use the restroom), but it is comforting to know that I have to talk and hear only on occasion. (Do I get to choose the “occasion” ?)
Please, please tell me that this is satire and that someone hacked the CVS website.
Now they ask if you have any kind of disability on the application process along with the ethic backround, veteran status and sex…they claim this is part of the federal requirement and in no way affects the application process…BS….I always answer no..because I don’t have a disability….but at most places I ‘ve had to work…I’ve always had to reset the computers to I can see it and redo some things in the pharmacy so I can reach them. Yes I need accommodations because I am vertically challenged and have to wear glasses and constantly looking with my neck bent at the computer screen because it’s too high gives me a neckache and a headache before I go home. And sometime standing for hours on end…..my feet swell and I need to sit and put them up while working…but do you think I’m going to put that on an application…NO WAY…not disable…just reasonable accommodations whether they like it or not
