An employer need not accommodate an employee's alleged disability until the EMPLOYEE initiates a request for a specific accommodation, and provide medical evidence of the impairment.
THEN, the employer decides if the impairment can be accommodated, either the way the employee suggests, or any other way which is not costly or violates a union contract.
An employer attempting to fire an employee does not necessarily violate ADA. Back pain is not disability. ADA disability is a permanent condition which substantially impairs a major life activity: seeing, hearing, walking, talking, eating, sleeping.
