If ahernative job placement is not available, the client now has legalty defensible documentation to justify that the proposed accommodations are unreasonable. Occu-Med's report (Med- Legal Anal)sis) integrates the functional limitations of the employee and the legal and practical ramifications regarding the agency's ability to accommodate the employee's restrictions or the legally appropriate path for terminating the employee, Occu-Med considers all the relevant factors of the case before rendering a medically appropriate and legalty defensible job suitability recommendation. In cases where the employee is unresponsive to OCCn-Med's correspondence a report documenting the attempts to contact the employee and the employee's failure to engage in the reasonable accommodation process will be provided to the City. With the City's approval, a Notification of Medical Disqualification (Failure to Engage in the Reasonable Accommodation Process) letter will be sent to explain to the employee that his or her lack of response to the Individualized Assessment/Reasonable Accommodation invitation constitutes his or her failure to engage in the reasonable accommodation process. This letter may also be used in the case that the employee's medical condition is a contraindication to job placement and no reasonable accommodation could be made.
