Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Americans with Disabilities Act requires that employers make reasonable accommodation for limitations of qualified applicants or employees unless to do so creates undue hardship. This refers to providing necessary accommodations to allow individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions of their job or to participate in the application process.

B is incorrect because while the ADA prohibits discrimination based on disability, it does not cover discrimination based on the other characteristics listed.

C is incorrect because while the ADA covers discrimination based on disability and prohibits national origin discrimination, it does not cover discrimination based on citizenship status.

D is incorrect because while the Employee Polygraph Protection Act prohibits employers from using polygraph results as the sole basis for employment actions, it is not a part of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
