Determining reasonable accommodations for workers with disabilities can be a complicated process for employers. The challenge is amplified when employees claim mental health issues such as depression, stress, anxiety, or burnout, all of which can be recognized as protected mental disabilities under federal and state laws, but may be difficult to recognize. This webinar aims to demystify the process by exploring what constitutes a protected mental impairment and outlining employers' legal obligations to provide reasonable accommodations. Additionally, we will delve into recent case studies and agency guidance to highlight best practices for fostering a supportive and compliant workplace environment.
