A bar back was injured at work, and when she came back to work, her doctor said she was permanently no longer able to lift more than 5 pounds.She has requested that the employer either a) transfer her to a different job with no lifting over 5 pounds, or b) change her job duties so she no longer has to lift more than 5 pounds.Does the employer have to do either one?
