  • Issue– The question is, are two twin sisters with myopia, classified disable under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) to rule out whether United Airlines, Inc. discriminated against them, or not 
  • RuleStatutory Law. Complaint filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) seeks to find just cause that discrimination was present due to the inability to meet a requirement for a position

Sutton v. United Air Lines, Inc.

      This case at first appears to be of a sensitive matter for the petitioners. Two sisters, whom of which feels as if they’ve been discriminated against by, United Air Lines, due their eye impairment. However, the courts have found that the issue in question doesn’t constitute validity under any act, nor statute and they failed to prove otherwise. This is so due to the definition—outlined by the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA). 

They weren’t discriminated against by the airline. They just didn’t meet the requirements needed to execute all responsibilities and duties expected for the position in which they applied for but, were, if desired; met requirements for others. No controls set forth by the airline was stated and the decision-making was aligned with the ADA’s guidelines. By implementing current software tools that in which flags potential candidates that may have special inabilities to perform specific job functions can assist HRM professionals prior to interviewing. This will help avoid potential discrimination cases and help place the right person in the right position on a broader scale.
