An applicant walks into your office for an interview with her dog. A third shift employee has trouble staying awake and says he has narcolepsy. A remote/telework employee is called back to work in the office but says she has anxiety and fear about catching COVID-19. What do you do? How do you handle these situations. Your FIRST response and reaction can cost you and your company a lot of money in lawyer fees and even fines from the EEOC.
The Americans with Disability Act (ADA) is complicated…but it can be understood. It can be “demystified”!
