Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Americans with Disabilities Act requires employers or schools to make reasonable accommodations to allow disabled individuals a chance to compete for and perform in jobs or assignments. This means that if there are barriers preventing a disabled individual from participating or performing in a job, the employer or school must make reasonable adjustments to remove those barriers. This does not give preference to disabled individuals over others, nor are they required to disclose their disability prior to accepting a job or assignment. Additionally, disabled individuals are able to compete for any job, not just those designated for accommodation.
