Osmose Utilities Services allegedly failed to accommodate an employee's request to work remotely after a stroke, leading to a lawsuit for ADA violations.
The EEOC argues that the refusal to grant remote work, essential for the employee’s health, constitutes a violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Despite prior acceptance of remote work during the pandemic, employers must still consider such accommodations for employees with disabilities under the ADA.
An employer is obligated to provide reasonable accommodations unless it can demonstrate undue hardship, even in a post-pandemic return-to-office environment.
