Hiring Interviews and Accommodations
If a prospective employer specifically asks about a candidate’s physical capacity to do a job and they say they can do all of the tasks required, and then notify us afterwards that they need accommodations for things they said they could do without them, are we: a) by law required to provide them OR b) can we make a decision that the person is not able to do the essential functions of the job and therefore not be allowed to continue in their employment? Dishonesty in applying for jobs seems grounds for termination, but when it comes to disabilities, I realize it’s a minefield. |
