The majority derived their conclusion on the basis that the disabled janitors were eligible to receive counseling services and were not subject to the same disciplinary procedures as their non-disabled coworkers.
If you want to have special privileges and benefits not granted to regular employees, then you must take the consequences.

Another way to say it is, "You can't have your cake and eat it too."

If the job is considered to be rehabilitive in nature, then there needs to be a regulation on the percentage of workers that are being rehabilitated, that way the contract won’t be loaded with cheap laborers without benefits and they’ll know that when they are hired.

When the Brevard Achievement Center (BAC) took over the government contract in 1997, it refused to recognize the janitors' union. After it won the contract intended for employers who hire disabled workers, BAC replaced most of the non-disabled janitors with disabled workers.

The home page for the Brevard Achievement Center says:
The mission of the Brevard Achievement Center is to assist people with all disabilities in reaching an optimal level of vocational and social independence. BAC is dedicated to the belief in dignity and worth of persons with disabilities and their right to rehabilitation, education and support services provided in the least restrictive environment.

This center is specifically for rehabilitation, education and support services provided in the least restrictive environment.
