One of your surgical techs with a history of poor performance seriously hurts her lower back trying to move a patient. She spends six weeks out of work recovering and will be restricted to sedentary work, lifting no more than 10 pounds occasionally, for at least four months upon her return. She's also undergoing physical therapy three mornings per week for the indefinite future. With no vacant positions that meet Tonya Tech's restrictions, you might be tempted to part ways. But first, you must consider these legal ramifications.
