Problem
Amy is a lead product specialist at a pencil factory. She recent developed a rare sensitivity to the wood, an essential material in pencil production. Amy's doctor give her a no exposure to wood restriction to prevent any adverse effects. Amy approached her manager, John, to discuss possible accommodations to eliminate the exposure of wood. John said she would be exposed to wood everywhere in the factory and there was no work available within her doctor's restriction. Amy asked about any open administrative positions in the office. John explained that she was not qualified for any of the open positions. If Amy felt like she was being discriminated against due to her sensitivity to wood, would she prevail on a disability claim under the Americans with Disabilities Act/ would the company have to provide accommodation to her?
