Check whether a federal accommodation statute covers the employee's request
Key facts
- Human involvement
- YellowClose supervision
- How AI is used
- From the employment facts the lawyer supplies, mark whether the papers describe a known physical or mental limitation of an applicant or employee, a disability, or a known limitation related to pregnancy, childbirth, or a related medical condition. Do not mark age, caring responsibilities, or family and domestic violence as a federal ground. Do not write the request that is sent.
- What the lawyer must review
- The federal grounds opened for this task are the known physical or mental limitations of an otherwise qualified individual with a disability who is an applicant or employee (42 U.S.C. § 12112(b)(5)(A)), and the known limitations related to pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions of a qualified employee (42 U.S.C. § 2000gg-1). You decide whether the person meets the statute, including the words otherwise qualified and qualified employee. The definition section for the pregnancy statute, § 2000gg, was not opened. Circumstances that support an Australian flexible-work request, and that are not in these two sections, are not a federal entitlement on these sources.
