ABOUT THE EVENT

Topic Overview

More and more individuals are using service animals to assist with a host of medical conditions. At one time, it was easy for an employer to say “no animals allowed” in the workplace. With the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act, however, employers now have to consider whether an employee is entitled to have a service animal at work as an accommodation. How do you tell the difference between an employee who needs a service animal as opposed to one who just wants to bring their pet to work? What documentation can you require?

Areas Covered

  • Do you know what is a service animal?
  • How do you lawfully determine whether the employee needs a service animal or just wants to bring his/her pet to work?
  • When is the use of service animal an ADA accommodation?
  • Problems to anticipate in the workplace when a service animal is there
  • Dealing with co-workers who may have allergies or other issues with service animals

Learning Objectives

  • Difference between service animals and pets
  • Determining whether the animal is truly a service animal
  • Work related concerns when service animals are present
