Lawsuit alleges woman was terminated from her job because she needed to use crutches
A Minnesota payroll company will go to court after a lawsuit was filed by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission on behalf of a woman who claims she was terminated from her job because she needed to use crutches following knee surgery. According to EEOC's lawsuit, Employer Solutions Group., LLC , headquartered in Eden Prairie, Minn., violated federal law for terminating the employee in 2018.
However, according to the lawsuit, the company stated the 38-year-old woman was"not 100 percent healed" from the surgery and that she would"without any objective evidence... be a safety risk if she returned on crutches." On Wednesday, the EEOC filed the lawsuit, EEOC v. Employer Solutions Group, LLC, Case No. 0:19-cv-02315, in the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota claiming that firing an employee due to real or perceived disability violates the ADA.
Huffman went on to say that Enstad, at least twice, gave the company a return date before she changed her mind and that the termination was a result of the company not knowing"when or if she ever was going to return to work."“The issue here was so minor,” said Julianne Bowman, district director of the EEOC’s Chicago office. “This employee needed to use crutches for a short time after returning from short-term disability leave.
