Boeing May Have Considered FMLA-Protected Leave in Decision to Fire Employee
Wolters Kluwer Law & Business Link to more items from this source
Apr. 28, 2015
"Boeing was denied summary judgment against an employee's claim that it impermissibly terminated his employment in violation of the Washington Family Leave Act (WFLA).... [A] federal district court ... determined that there was evidence from which a reasonable jury could conclude that Boeing considered FMLA-protected leave as a negative factor when it made the decision to fire him. However, where the employee failed to show that his neck injury was a 'substantial factor' in Boeing's decision to terminate his employment, his discrimination and failure-to-accommodate claims under the Washington Law Against Discrimination (WLAD) failed to survive." [Jury v. Boeing, No. C13-1921RSL (W.D. Wash. Apr. 22, 2015)]
