Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A significant risk of substantial harm to the health or safety of an individual that cannot be eliminated or reduced by reasonable accommodation is known as a direct threat under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Employers may exclude a person with a disability from a job if they pose a direct threat to themselves or others.

Answer: F
 Reasonable accommodation is a modification or adjustment to a job or workplace that enables a qualified individual with a disability to perform the essential functions of the job. This serves to eliminate or reduce barriers that may prevent a person with a disability from fully participating in the workplace. Employers are required to provide reasonable accommodations unless it would cause an undue hardship on the employer.

Answer: I
 Essential functions of the job refer to those fundamental job duties that an employee must be able to perform to hold a particular job. These functions are determined by the employer and are typically outlined in a job description. An employer does not have to eliminate or modify an essential function of the job as a reasonable accommodation.

Answer: J
 The Rehabilitation Act of 1973 is a federal law that prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability by federal agencies, contractors, and recipients of federal financial assistance. It requires employers to provide reasonable accommodation to employees with disabilities and to make their programs and activities accessible to individuals with disabilities.
