“Goldilocks” Work Environment Not Required Under the ADA

 

Employers don't need to accommodate with a job that's "just right".

Just over two decades ago, when the ADA was in its infancy and our author was a summer associate heading into his final year of law school, he attended a hearing in federal court where the judge was considering a motion to dismiss the ADA claims of a plaintiff-employee.  The plaintiff was claiming, among other things, that his employer had failed to reasonably accommodate him under the Act. Read this white paper to find out how the court ruled in this case and a recent case from 2016.
