A 2009 MSPB order adopted the EEOC’s disability discrimination finding in a removal case and explains why accommodation timelines and FAA back pay rules can change the remedy path.
A federal employee’s removal for “physical inability to perform” was reversed when the MSPB found the agency treated a male coworker more leniently under an informal light-duty practice. This decision shows how comparator evidence can matter in real-world federal workplaces.

In an EEOC decision involving a federal employee’s telework accommodation request, the Commission found a ten month delay was unreasonable and remanded for compensatory damages. The EEOC also ordered reimbursement for hearing transcript costs—an important reminder that process rights matter.
A federal officer was kept on light duty and later deemed not medically qualified after an allergic reaction. The EEOC reversed in part, emphasizing individualized “direct threat” analysis and ordering reinstatement-related remedies.
