in real life - Reasonable Accommodation Considerations w/ Patrick F. Martin,
Esq. Shareholder, Littler
Where: Greater
Miami Chamber of Commerce 1601 Biscayne Boulevard, Ballroom Level (located
inside the Hilton MiamiDowntown)
Description:
Claims of ADA violations filed with the EEOC have risen
significantly in the last four years. The ADAAA’s expanded definition of who is “disabled” will likely result in this trend
continuing. This reality means that knowing how to correctly manage the interactive and reasonable accommodations process is critical.
Examine case studies culled from actual situations dealing with
four key phases of the ADA compliance
process:
• Accommodations in the hiring process
• Direct threat or abusive behavior caused by a disability
• Accommodation issues related to modified job duties and/or leave
• Termination of an employee who is no longer a “qualified individual” due to a degenerative disability
Attorneys with ADA experience, will work closely with attendees to
discuss and develop practical solutions to problems
raised in the case studies. Emphasizing best practices, participants will leave
with a better understanding of how to deal with the
ADA in real life.
