"Regular attendance at the worksite can be an essential job function, the U.S. 8th Circuit Court of Appeals recently reminded employers, upholding the termination of an employee who had violated the employer's attendance policy. As a result, the former employee can no longer pursue her Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) or Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) claims." [Evans v. Cooperative Response Center, Inc., No. 19-2483 (8th Cir. May 4, 2021)]
