From the supplier: Courts take a variety of approaches to determining what is reasonable accommodation for an employee under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. A survey of cases decided in favor of employees and of employers shows no clear line, but does indicate that the employee's essential ability to get the job done, given moderate aid or flexibility, counts heavily. Courts have developed three competing methods to allocate the burden of proof in such cases between the plaintiff and the defendant.
