Telecommuting and the Americans with Disabilities Act

 

Gain knowledge on uncertainties in the legal landscape.

The courts have taken a range of approaches on whether or not an employer is required to recognize telecommuting in with regard to a reasonable accommodation request. At least two courts say that an employer is required to acknowledge telecommuting as a possible reasonable accommodation as part of the interactive process. On the other hand, the employer may reject telecommuting as an option, if the appropriate facts and circumstances prove to are shown to exist. This white paper reviews ADA and telecommuting court cases and also discusses FMLA and telecommuting considerations.
