Why Do You Need an ADA or Disability Discrimination Attorney?
An Arizona employment law attorney with experience handling these issues will be an invaluable asset to your case. Our disability discrimination attorneys can use resources to thoroughly investigate allegations of discrimination based on disability, and they can uncover the evidence needed to prove liability. This can include obtaining statements from coworkers and other witnesses, reviewing internal company documents detailing discussions about disabilities and accommodations, and more.
Our skilled ADA and disability discrimination lawyers use their knowledge of both state and federal law and the evidence gathered to enter into negotiations with an employer on behalf of the wronged employee. If a fair settlement and accommodations cannot be reached, an ADA and disability discrimination attorney can take the case to trial.
Types of ADA and Disability Discrimination in the Workplace
According to the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), disability discrimination occurs “when an employer or other entity covered by the Americans with Disabilities Act, as amended, or the Rehabilitation Act, as amended, treats a qualified individual with a disability who is an employee or applicant unfavorably because she has a disability.”
According to the Arizona Attorney General’s Office, discrimination based on a physical or mental disability is also against the law at the state level.
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires that employers provide reasonable accommodations to applicants and employees who have a qualified disability, so long as doing so would not cause undue hardship to the employer. Anytime an individual with a disability has the necessary skills, certifications, and experience for the job, and can perform a specific job’s essential functions, they should be afforded reasonable accommodations unless those accommodations are not unduly burdensome to the employer. These accommodations can include:
- Allowing a reasonable amount of time for unpaid medical leave.
- Restructuring jobs around the disability, which can include modifying an employee’s schedule.
- Transferring an employee to the same job or a substantially similar job at a different location so they can have more accommodations or better access to medical care period
- Changing existing equipment or facilities to enable easier use for the disabled worker.
