American Airlines Sued for Allegedly Refusing to Give Disabled Workers Reasonable Accommodations

American Airlines violates the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) with the way it treats its disabled employees, a new class action lawsuit alleges.

Plaintiff Santrise White, who is disabled and a current American Airlines employee, claims the airline, in regard to its disabled employees, refuses to engage in interactive processes, refuses accommodations, impermissibly terminates them, and fails to rehire them.
