Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Rehabilitation Act require employers to make reasonable accommodations for employees with disabilities, including those with alcoholism, as long as it does not cause undue hardship on the operation of the business. Terminating an employee without considering accommodations or suggesting rehabilitation options can be seen as a failure to comply with these acts.
