Michael Foley, an associate in the Labor & Employment Practice Group in the New Orleans office, wrote the article "Reasonable Accommodation Not Always Employee's Preferred Choice," which was republished in HR Daily Advisor. In his article, Michael reviews a recent decision from the US 5th Circuit Court of Appeals which clarified that a disability accommodation can be reasonable even if it's not the employee's first choice. Michael says the ruling also demonstrates that it is important to take seriously all accommodation requests arising from an employee's limiting physical or mental conditions, even if they appear minor or temporary.
