Produktbeschreibung
Employees are increasingly working beyond traditional retirement age. In Canada this is due in part to a shift toward prohibiting mandatory retirement policies. However, impairments arising from aging may prevent workers from performing their duties. This book examines the employer s duty to accommodate aging workers under Canadian human rights legislation. First the author thoroughly examines the case law regarding the duty to accommodate disability in order to determine how courts and tribunals balance employer and employee rights in disability cases.

It is proposed that the duty to accommodate be narrower in respect of age than disability.
