New Job Offer while on STD

@David_Brannen

Employer’s have an onerous obligation to accommodate an employees’ disability to the point of undue hardship. They also have an obligation to enter into this process in good faith, and not giving ultimates and bullying tactics.

what is the Employers responsibility since I can no longer perform the original position I had. If they are unable to, or unwilling to find a suitable position within my permanent restrictions what happens next?

Do they terminate me? Would that involve a severance package or their responsibility ends at the end of the LTD.

I’m guessing they would terminate you but I think it is really hard to prove they couldn’t accommodate you.
If every job in that industry is high stress then maybe you can’t work for any company in that industry so the company could prove they couldn’t accommodate you (my non lawyer opinion).

I don’t know about severance.
