Even IF she were to be classified as "disabled" (which usually mean that the individual is not able to do one of several "activities of daily living") which Williams showed no sign of being in the strict legal definition, an employer is required to make "reasonable accommodation" to provide a working environment that accommodates that disability. If the individual is employed as an assembly worker and is not longer able to work as such in any REASONABLE capacity, the employer should not be required to find other work outside of that original classification, especially if they are not qualifed for and if there are no positions open for them to fill.
Hope this helps.
