Medically-Based Workplace Accommodations or Personal Time-Off
When medical needs conflict with work priorities
Addressing disabilities and medical issues in the workplace is one of the most complex areas of employment law. Balancing workers’ rights and needs with the rights of employers to continue to run their business can be difficult. Decisions are further complicated by the myriad of intersecting federal, state and local laws governing disabilities, medical issues, and leaves of absence. Sapir Schragin can help navigate these nuances to ensure an employee’s rights are protected.
We represent people just like you
We represent people who have had their careers and their futures placed in jeopardy because their legal rights have been denied by employers. We help employees denied the full extent of their family or sick leave rights, or who have experienced retaliation for asserting them.
A disability should not be a barrier to work
We help employees get the workplace accommodations they need to help them do their jobs despite their disabilities. When companies refuse to engage in the interactive process or to provide accommodations we will step in and get the relief needed.
Let us help you assess your needs, navigate the legal complexities that complicate these decisions, and achieve a positive outcome.
Call us if your personal needs and work responsibilities conflict.
