DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THE ADA’s ASSOCIATION PROVISIONS?

By October 1, 2009No Comments

More ADA “association discrimination” cases are being filed. The association provision of the ADA is based on an employee’s relationship with a person who has a disability. For example, a company may not refuse to hire a job applicant based on their concern for the applicant’s caring for a disabled person. Likewise, companies may not reject applicants because family members with a disability might produce increased health costs.
