Must an employer, as a reasonable accommodation, reallocate job duties of an employee with a disability-related occupational injury? Yes, if the duties to be reallocated are marginal functions of the position that the employee cannot perform because of the disability. Reasonable accommodation includes restructuring a position by reallocating or redistributing the marginal functions that the employee cannot perform because of the disability. However, an employer need not eliminate essential functions of the position.
