Person in Company: How do I let my disabled employee go? Employment Lawyer: How are you accommodating them? PiCo: Uhhhh, but they can't come to work. Employment Lawyer: 😐 Most of us know the standard is high, but sometimes it can be hard to explain it to a frustrated leader who is struggling to be effective.

There's lots of tipsI ❌You can't terminate someone just because they are on LTD with no expected return-to-work date. ⏱️Maintain periodic, reasonable, contact. Go for coffee or lunch with the employee. Be positive and supportive. ☺️The leaders who 'get' it are those who have experience with disability in some way. 💸Those that proceed with termination too soon and without full exploration may lose *$$$* This is technical topic! And a CANADIAN one because it is based in Canadian law.
