Illegal Discrimination

It is against both California and federal law to discriminate against employees due to race, color, religion, sex, disability, age or a number of other factors.

When it comes to disability claims, the Americans with Disabilities Act requires employers to provide reasonable accommodation for disabled employees. Reasonable accommodation may include:

• Changing your job work hours
• Adapting your workspace to allow for vision, hearing or mobility loss
• Buying new equipment that is better suited for you
• Allowing you to park in reserved parking spots
• Accepting task assistance from another employee

Under California law, as long as a disabled person is capable of performing core job responsibilities, he or she must be treated the same as other employees. Reasonable accommodation, on the other hand, cannot place undue hardship on the employer.

Reasonable Accommodation for People With Disabilities

Our lawyers have found disability discrimination on the part of an employer to often be a simple mistake. Perhaps your employer does not understand the law or their responsibilities under the Americans with Disabilities Act.
