Title I of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)

Title I of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) prohibits employers from discriminating against qualified individuals with disabilities in all aspects of employment. This means employers must provide equal opportunity for hiring, firing, promotions, pay, and job training. They are also required to make reasonable accommodations—adjustments or modifications—to help employees with disabilities perform their job duties, unless doing so would cause undue hardship for the business. The goal is to ensure fair treatment and equal access to employment opportunities for people with disabilities.
