TRAINING OVERVIEW
Charges of disability discrimination have spiked after the ADA Amendments Act was passed. The change in the law has reoriented employers from contesting whether a disability exists to focusing on the accommodation process. Managers play an important role in every organization’s ADA compliance efforts. They are often the first individual from an organization to interact with the employee’s disability. What your managers say and do can, and will, be used against the organization in any disability discrimination litigation. Are they prepared to protect the organization’s interests?
