The American Disabilities Act (ADA) is a crucial piece of legislation that protects the rights of employees with mental or physical disabilities, requiring employers to make reasonable accommodations for these individuals. The act has important implications for employers to uphold these rights and prevent discrimination against individuals with disabilities.<\/p>
Examples of conditions covered under the ADA include Injuries that prevent an individual from working for a specific period of time like shoulder injuries or broken bones, injuries that require corrective surgery like back surgery to address chronic pain, diseases like cancer, epilepsy, or asthma, and mental disabilities like bipolar disorders, chronic depression and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).<\/p>
Unfortunately, ADA violations in the workplace are more common than they should be, either due to ignorance regarding the act\u2019s provisions or outright discrimination, which is why an experienced ADA attorney can be a valuable resource. At JacksonWhite Law, our Arizona attorneys support both employees and employers in cases surrounding the ADA to ensure compliance and secure the rights of those protected.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
