Disability Discrimination Law

Disability discrimination law in employment protects individuals against unfair treatment due to their disabilities. Under laws like the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), employers must provide reasonable accommodations to help qualified employees perform their job tasks, as long as it doesn't cause significant difficulty or expense for the employer. Discrimination can occur in hiring, firing, promotions, or workplace conditions. Employees with disabilities cannot be treated less favorably than those without disabilities, fostering an inclusive work environment where everyone has equal opportunities to succeed.
