2.21.4118    DISCHARGING EMPLOYEES WITH DISABILITIES

(1) Agency managers may discharge an employee with a disability when the employee is no longer able to perform the essential functions of their job with or without a reasonable accommodation, and managers have ruled out all possible options.

(2) If denial of a reasonable accommodation results in the discharge of an employee, the appeal process outlined in ARM Title 2, chapter 21, subchapter 65, Discipline Policy or applicable collective bargaining agreement supersedes the reasonable accommodation appeal process.
