Case Details

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission recently settled a lawsuit against Papa Johns for denying a blind employee a reasonable accommodation. The pizza chain was required to pay the former employee $175,000 to settle the matter. According to the EEOC, a legally blind employee was fired from Papa Johns after the pizza chain allegedly denied a request to bring his service dog to the job site.

Additional Notes

The lawsuit alleged that the employee was hired in Athens, Georgia in 2020. He told his employer that he was unable to start his job until the company reviewed his request to bring his service dog to work. The employee’s request was immediately denied, and he was terminated before working even a single shift.
