Beyond the Basics: Disability and Pregnancy Accommodations in Manufacturing

This webinar will take a deeper dive into accommodation issues in the manufacturing industry, building on topics introduced in our June 30 webinar, “Managing Disability and Pregnancy Accommodations in the Manufacturing Workplace.” Using hypotheticals based on questions received during that webinar, the speakers will illustrate the applicable framework for managing both pregnancy and disability accommodations. Examples of the hypotheticals to be covered include eligibility and scope under the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act, leave duration issues, lactation and pumping accommodations, the interactive process and job reassignment, medical documentation and fitness-for-duty evaluations, and scenarios involving safety, impairment, and refusal of care.
