The Americans With Disabilities Act Is the Law
In 1990, the United States Congress passed the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), stating employers are required to provide reasonable accommodations for disabled workers. The law also stipulates that job employers must consider job applicants for their abilities to perform required tasks, not their disabilities. In 2008, Congress enacted sweeping changes favorable to disabled employees.
If you are an American worker with a disability and you feel your employer is violating your rights under the Americans with Disabilities Act, you have the right to seek compensation in the form of money damages, legal fees and forced compliance at your work place.
