Boeing May Have Considered FMLA-Protected Leave in Decision to Fire Employee
Wolters Kluwer Law & Business 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)]
