Not smart Ed. You don't own the business, it's not your decision to make.

Refusing someone based on your personal beliefs is discrimination. You dont have the right to make someone elses decision like that. Just saying.

Here where I work, we are taught that if you aren't comfortable with the work that is about to be performed, that job needs to be stopped immediately to either you are comfortable or you find a replacement that is comfortable with the work to be performed. This is a quality and safety issue. If he wasn't comfortable with the lady in his class, she shouldn't be in his class. His over attention to her safety would impact the overall class in his reduced attention in the rest of them by monitoring her. That would be unacceptable.

As for his decision to make, yes it is his decision to make. If he thinks it is a safety risk on the customer, you can make that call. It's like Walt Disney World refusing a customer to ride rides because they are a safety risk. This is not discrimination. If the employer thinks it's not a safety risk, they can bring in another employee who is willing to take that safety risk.

Safety is not discrimination and you are allowed as an employee to say to your company that you do not want to perform a task because you think it is a safety hazard. It's every employees responsibility to question the tasks they are asked to perform.
