    The original (longer) title: My job is telling me I have to be removed from my current position to a lower one with a pay reduction because they cannot accommodate me for my permanent medical restrictions from my congenital heart disorder

      Is it a warehouse job?

        Yes, it's a fulfillment-center position. The person has a medical restriction that they can not lift more than 50lbs for an indefinite period. The job that they had requires "very frequently" lifting more than 50lbs, and so they have been told that since being able to lift 50lbs is a core requirement of the job function that they would have to move to a different position which had different duties and didn't require heavy lifting -- but the position that they had available for the individual is a lower-paying one.

          Guessing so, the job requires routine lifting
