Does ADA cover commuting?

September 23, 2023 / By Barbara Weltman

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires employers to make reasonable accommodations for employees’ disabilities. One worker with cataracts and a long driving commute wanted his hours changed so he could avoid night driving. A federal district court said there is no duty under the ADA to accommodate a commute to work. But an appellate court reversed. “[I]f an employee’s disability substantially interferes with his ability to travel to and from work, the employee may be entitled to a reasonable accommodation if commuting to work is a prerequisite to an essential job function, including attendance … and if the accommodation is reasonable under all the circumstances.” #IdeaoftheDay
