Question: 1 / 50

What additional argument can an employer use to reject a disabled worker, other than undue hardship?

Cost of training

Lack of industry experience

Direct threat to health and safety

An employer may not reject a disabled worker based on undue hardship, as they are required to provide reasonable accommodations. However, a direct threat to health and safety can be used as a legitimate argument for rejection if the individual cannot perform essential job functions even with accommodations. Options A, B, and D do not outweigh the legal obligation to provide reasonable accommodations and therefore cannot be used as a valid argument for rejection.

Incompatibility with corporate culture
