477+13 (J) Pregnancy; reasonable accommodations.
478+14 (1) If after a job applicant or employee,
479+15 including a part-time, full-time, or probationary

506+6 description of the reasonable accommodation or
507+7 accommodations medically advisable, the date the
508+8 reasonable accommodation or accommodations became
509+9 medically advisable, and the probable duration of the
510+10 reasonable accommodation or accommodations. It is the
511+11 duty of the individual seeking a reasonable
512+12 accommodation or accommodations to submit to the
513+13 employer any documentation that is requested in
514+14 accordance with this paragraph. Notwithstanding the
515+15 provisions of this paragraph, the employer may require
516+16 documentation by the employee's health care provider
517+17 to determine compliance with other laws. The employee
518+18 and employer shall engage in a timely, good faith, and
519+19 meaningful exchange to determine effective reasonable
520+20 accommodations.
521+21 (2) For an employer to deny employment
522+22 opportunities or benefits to or take adverse action
523+23 against an otherwise qualified job applicant or

558+22 equivalent position with equivalent pay and

576+4 For the purposes of this subdivision (J), "reasonable
577+5 accommodations" means reasonable modifications or
578+6 adjustments to the job application process or work
579+7 environment, or to the manner or circumstances under which
580+8 the position desired or held is customarily performed,
581+9 that enable an applicant or employee affected by
582+10 pregnancy, childbirth, or medical or common conditions
583+11 related to pregnancy or childbirth to be considered for
584+12 the position the applicant desires or to perform the
585+13 essential functions of that position, and may include, but
586+14 is not limited to: more frequent or longer bathroom
587+15 breaks, breaks for increased water intake, and breaks for

610+2 For the purposes of this subdivision (J), "undue
611+3 hardship" means an action that is prohibitively expensive
612+4 or disruptive when considered in light of the following
613+5 factors: (i) the nature and cost of the accommodation
614+6 needed; (ii) the overall financial resources of the
615+7 facility or facilities involved in the provision of the
616+8 reasonable accommodation, the number of persons employed
617+9 at the facility, the effect on expenses and resources, or
618+10 the impact otherwise of the accommodation upon the
619+11 operation of the facility; (iii) the overall financial
620+12 resources of the employer, the overall size of the
621+13 business of the employer with respect to the number of its
622+14 employees, and the number, type, and location of its
623+15 facilities; and (iv) the type of operation or operations
624+16 of the employer, including the composition, structure, and
625+17 functions of the workforce of the employer, the geographic
626+18 separateness, administrative, or fiscal relationship of
627+19 the facility or facilities in question to the employer.
628+20 The employer has the burden of proving undue hardship. The
629+21 fact that the employer provides or would be required to
630+22 provide a similar accommodation to similarly situated
631+23 employees creates a rebuttable presumption that the
632+24 accommodation does not impose an undue hardship on the
633+25 employer.

645+1 create additional employment that the employer would not
646+2 otherwise have created, unless the employer does so or
647+3 would do so for other classes of employees who need
648+4 accommodation. The employer is not required to discharge
649+5 any employee, transfer any employee with more seniority,
650+6 or promote any employee who is not qualified to perform
651+7 the job, unless the employer does so or would do so to
652+8 accommodate other classes of employees who need it.
653+9 (K) Notice.
654+10 (1) For an employer to fail to post or keep posted

658+14 information concerning an employee's rights under this
659+15 Article, a notice, to be prepared or approved by the
660+16 Department, summarizing the requirements of this

690+10 tenure, or the terms, privileges, or conditions of
691+11 employment, for an employer to use artificial
