ASL INTERPRETER WASNT PROVIDED

摘要

A Florida medical facility has been sued by the EEOC for failing to provide a sign-language interpreter for a trainee housekeeper.rnThe EEOC said that without an American Sign Language (ASL) interpreter, the hearing-impaired woman couldn't complete the training and lost the job.rnThe EEOC's position is that the employer, Florida Institute for Neurologic Rehabilitation, failed to reasonably accommodate her.rnNote: The ADA doesn't dictate what a reasonable accommodation is. But employers must try to accommodate employees or candidates with disabilities, unless this would pose an undue hardship.
