Americans With Disabilities Act: Special Leave of Absence Considerations

 

The crux of the duty not to discriminate often defaults to the duty to provide reasonable accommodation.

The ADA prohibits private employers with 15 or more employees, state and local governments and labor unions from discriminating against qualified individuals with disabilities in all terms and conditions of employment. The statute also requires employers to reasonably accommodate disabled employees who are otherwise qualified for their positions. State ADA laws are similar and may be tougher in some cases. This video reviews the eligibility of employees and the different types of impairment; and discusses reasonable accommodation and the interactive process.
