Refusing to Allow an Employee to Return After a Leave Due to Disability Is Illegal

5/2/2022

 
The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission recently settled a lawsuit against S&C Electric Company.  The EEOC's lawsuit alleged that an employee who had worked for S&C for over fifty years before he was diagnosed with cancer and broke his hip, forcing him to take a leave of absence due to his disabilities.  The employee provided the company with numerous doctor's notes allowing him to return to work in his former position.  Indeed, this position was primarily a sedentary position.  Despite this, S&C did not allow the employee to return and instead terminated his employment.  This alleged conduct is a violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act, as amended.  EEOC et al. v. S&C Electric Company, No. 17-cv-06753 (N.D. Ill.).
