Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Under the ADA, businesses are required to make their facilities accessible to people with disabilities, unless doing so would impose undue "hardship." "Hardship" means significant difficulty or expense. Therefore, the shop owner would need to make reasonable accommodations, such as installing a ramp or lift, unless doing so would be an undue hardship. Simply training personnel would not be sufficient to meet the requirements of the ADA.
