BENEFITS |
|
Many employers are at a loss on how to respond to an employee
with a mental disability. Indeed, they sometimes do not learn of
the disability until the employee tells a co-worker who then
communicates to management that he is concerned about working
with an unstable co-worker and demands that the employer provide
assurance that the co-worker is safe.
Furthermore, mentally
disabled employees may request unique forms of accommodation
that the employer is unsure whether they must grant and are
unsure what medical information they can require the employee to
provide concerning the disability.
This live audio conference helps you determine whether your
company may make medical inquiries to determine whether the
employee can be terminated for disability-related misconduct,
recognize when the employee truly has a disability, understand
the types of accommodation that may be required and those that
are not, when and what types of medical inquires and
examinations may be required, and determine whether the employee
is a direct threat.
An employer's failure to recognize its
obligations to the mentally disabled employee and what it is
required to do to accommodate such employees, if necessary, as
well as the circumstances under which it can terminate the
employee will prevent disability claims and place the company in
a much better position to defend the claim if one is made.
