Accommodating Mental Health Disabilities-Strategies for Success
Presenter: Jennifer Rosner, Liebert Cassidy Whitmore
Public sector disability discrimination claims are on the rise and many employers will face challenges accommodating an employee whose mental disability impacts or limits their job performance. Unlike physical disabilities, mental disabilities can be difficult to recognize and/or accommodate. This presentation will address some of the unique challenges an employer faces when presented with an employee’s mental disability. You’ll learn about an employer’s responsibilities when an unspoken mental disability is suspected; how far an employer is required to go to accommodate a mental disability; knowing when the accommodation process is over; and the circumstances under which an employer can separate a disabled employee.
