Employer Comes Up Smelling Like Roses in Reasonable Accommodation Case

 

Court Reminds Employee That She Can’t Always Get What She Wants

Case law reiterates that employers are not required to provide every accommodation requested by an employee. An employer’s failure to provide a fragrance-free work environment does not equate to a failure to provide a reasonable accommodation or an adverse action against an employee, according to the District Court for the Northern District of Illinois in Alanis v. Metra.  This case serves as a good reminder that you just can’t satisfy every employee.
