The Duty to AccommodateLegal Issues
Comment:
your argument to revolve around the duty to accommodate. Perhaps you could write about how the operation of the duty to accommodate has negatively affected employment standards for People With Disability. Your Law section should then focus on the principle, how it is invoked (you mention disclosure somewhere in the argument) and the limitation of undue hardship. The sections that follow need to make an argument that has firmer grounding in scholarship. Formatting Guidelines: Your final paper will be no longer than 8-10 pages, double spaced, with 12 point Times New Roman font and 1 inch margins. This paper should reflect development upon your outline, and an effort to incorporate feedback from your course instructor. Evaluation: You will be evaluated on the strength and organization of your claims, and whether evidence is used effectively. Ensure mechanic and stylistic errors are corrected. References should be footnoted in McGill Style format, but direct quotes should be minimal. There should be at minimum 10 sources, including primary materials (legislation and case law), scholarship, and news articles. At minimum 3 of your 10 sources should be scholarly articles. Outline: Please note, your essay assignment has a recommended structure–a structure which should be familiar to you after having completed your outline: • Introduction – identify your thesis and the outline of your paper • Law – explain relevant case law, legislation, rules and regulations, norms, etc. • Impact – defend/critique by identifying direct implications for disabled persons • Context – situate in a wider context by identifying disability barriers, attitudinal ableism, etc. o Impact and context are the crux of your argument. Determine whether you are defending law for advancing disability justice, or critiquing law for being either inadequate or ableist. • Objection – entertain an objection to your argument and respond to it Conclusion – identify insights or recommendations NOTE: PLEASE USE THE PROPOSAL THAT WAS MARKED BY THE PROFESSOR AND MAKE SURE TO INCORPORATE THE CHANGES SHE HAS ASKED.
