SCENARIO 2: DAY AND ZIMMERMANN
Day and Zimmermann is a nationally known construction management and staffing firm
with offices in Philadelphia and in other major cities that primarily serves the nuclear
power industry. In 2016, Day and Zimmerman found itself in a significant legal trouble
based upon how it handled a disability and retaliation case filed in 2015.

project. He asked for an accommodation that would keep him away from radiation. The
accommodation was refused because the company stated there was no radiation to be
exposed to; Marsh filed a charge with the EEOC.
Day and Zimmerman’s attorney notified all 146 employees hired for the project that the
charge was filed and that the EEOC might contact them. She explained her action by
saying there would be less confusion and administrative hassle. Unfortunately, the
notification also included Gordon Marsh’s name and address and details about his
medical condition.
