The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Washington Law Against Discrimination (WLAD) prohibit employers from discriminating against qualified individuals based on a disability. Washington workers’ compensation law provides a system for compensating employees for occupational injuries and illnesses. While the two laws have different purposes, the analysis under workers' compensation law often affects the analysis under the ADA and the WLAD or vice versa. This panel provides a basic introduction to the interplay between Washington’s workers’ compensation law and the ADA and WLAD. It will cover topics such as subrogation, best practices for leave requests, discipline, termination, and retaliation.
