M Civ JI 106.11A Employment Discrimination Statute - Accommodation - Undue Hardship - Equipment or Device

An undue hardship is defined by statute. In this case, because [ defendant employs fewer than four employees / defendant employs four or more but less than 15 employees ], if the equipment or devices required to accommodate the plaintiff cost more than [ the state average weekly wage / 1.5 times the state average weekly wage ], that accommodation imposes an undue hardship. If it is less than or equal to that amount, the accommodation does not impose an undue hardship.
