Under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) an employer cannot discriminate against a qualified individual because of a disability. This applies to:

• Hiring
• Applications
• Firing
• Advancement
• Privileges
• Compensation
• Job Training

An employer must make reasonable accommodations to the known physical or mental limitations of an otherwise qualified person with a disability, unless the employer can show that the accommodations would cause undue hardship on the employer.

In order to have a claim under the ADA, the employee or applicant must have a recognized disability and must be able to perform the essential duties of a job.
