Equal Employment Opportunity Comm’n v. Kohl's Dep’t Stores, Inc., No. 14-1268 (1st Cir. 2014)
Annotate this CasePamela Manning, who suffers from type I diabetes, resigned from her employment at Kohl’s Department Stores, Inc. after Kohl’s refused to grant her request for a steady work schedule. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission brought this suit on Manning’s behalf, alleging that Kohl’s refused to provide Manning with reasonable accommodations in violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and constructive discharge. The district court entered summary judgment for Kohl’s. The First Circuit affirmed, holding that because Kohl’s made multiple offers to Manning after her resignation to discuss alternative reasonable accommodations, Manning had neither a claim for ADA discrimination nor a claim for constructive discharge.
