Accommodations & Bona Fide Occupational Requirements: Meeting the Thresholds

EDI principles and EDI initiatives require careful planning, continuous reflection, and strategic advice. As a leader in the advisory work underlying EDI, we are at the forefront of the increasingly important dialogues around EDI initiatives. Join our four-part EDI webinar series running throughout the month of October to learn more about how to navigate the EDI journey within your organization.

All employers have a duty to accommodate employees’ needs based on the prohibited grounds of discrimination in human rights legislation. But, what are the limits of that duty to accommodate? When can an employer successfully prove that a workplace standard or rule is a bona fide occupational requirement?

This seminar provides an overview of the duty to accommodate, outlines the thresholds to prove a bona fide occupational requirement, and considers how these issues apply in real workplace situations.
