ADA – Accommodation Procedures and Compliance Training
For: HR & People Leaders | 2 Hours
From its inception, the ADA was intended “to assure equality of opportunity, full participation, independent living, and economic self-sufficiency for individuals with disabilities.” Unfortunately, what this has meant for employers is a very complex law, with rules that are confusing and often misunderstood.
Plus, the law has undergone significant changes in the 25 years since it was signed into law. Did you know, for example, that in many instances the ADA will require that you provide leave to an employee who requests it as a “reasonable accommodation”? (which is why the ADA has often been called “the FMLA for small employers”). Employers also often overlook that they too have rights under the ADA, and that the employee also has various obligations under the law.
The ADA workshop will cover two major issues:
Employee’s rights to a reasonable accommodation
Employer’s rights and obligations under the law
Join us for this 2-hour webinar and learn about all of the basic and complex rules and obligations under the ADA, as well as the rights of both employees and employers.
