Description
Abstract: When a trucker returned from a leave stemming from issues with substance abuse, he was required to sign a Return to Work Agreement (RWA) proscribing drugs and alcohol. When he relapsed and was terminated, he claimed ADA and FMLA violations. The district court ruled in favor of the employer, and so did the appeals court. This article discusses how the contractual power of the RWA prevailed. Ostrowski v. Con-Way Freight, Inc., No. 12-3800, Oct. 30, 2013 (3rd Cir.)
