  abstract     = {{This thesis examines the prohibition of lack of accessibility under discrimination law in working life and analyses the extent of employers’ obligations to implement reasonable accommodation measures for employees with disabilities. Using a legal dogmatic method, the study analyses current law through Swedish discrimination legislation, EU law, international obligations under the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD), and case law from the Swedish Labour Court.

The analysis demonstrates that the law of reasonable accommodation is structured around several cumulative requirements disadvantage, comparability, failure to act, and an overarching assessment of reasonableness. In practice, the reasonableness assessment is decisive. Case law shows that employers’ economic and practical circumstances are often given substantial weight, meaning that extensive or recurring costs have in several cases rendered accommodation measures unreasonable, even in permanent employment relationships.

The thesis identifies a clear tension between Swedish judicial practice, the labour market oriented approach of EU law, and Sweden’s international obligations under the CRPD. This tension is particularly evident in assessments of reasonableness, where UN bodies have in some cases adopted a more expansive interpretation than the Swedish Labour Court.}},
