Topics 

Reasonable or Not: Navigating the Line of Workplace Accommodations 

Teresa Shulda, Rachel Gonzales 

In this interactive session, we’ll debate real-life religion, disability, and pregnancy discrimination cases, in which courts considered whether an employee’s requested accommodation was reasonable or not. We’ll discuss the key factors that courts consider in making decisions about reasonable accommodations and provide compliance takeaways to apply to your organization’s accommodation processes. 

The Termination: Examining an Employment Decision Gone Horribly Wrong 

Jeff DeGraffenreid, Ensemble 

In our fun and informative final session, we’ll go behind-the-scenes to investigate a (fictional, but realistic) botched employment termination. Our crack investigation team will interview witnesses and dig deep to uncover the “truth” … as it appears from the perspective of the decisionmaker, HR, co-workers, and the terminated employee. We’ll then discuss what went wrong and why, and lessons learned, so you can help keep your organization from making similar missteps.

Each session in the 2025 Employment Law Institute series will be submitted for preapproval of HRCI, SHRM, and Kansas and Missouri CLE credit.
