Frequently Asked Questions & COVID-19 Specific Requirements

 

What is the Americans with Disabilities Act?
Title I of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) prohibits employers from discriminating against qualified individuals with disabilities in job application procedures, hiring, firing, advancement, compensation, job training, and other terms, conditions, and privileges of employment. In accordance with the ADA, an employer must make what is termed “reasonable accommodation” for the known physical or mental limitations of a qualified individual with a disability unless it can show that the accommodation would cause an undue hardship to its operation.
