ADA Employer Handbook

A guide to understanding and complying with the Americans with Disabilities Act

Welcoming people of all abilities into your workforce isn’t just the right thing to do, it’s the law. But complying requires more than compassion — it takes knowledge. Our employer guide can help you navigate the ADA law’s subtle and complex requirements, so you can avoid the costly consequences of failing to comply.

This guide includes:

  • How the law defines important terms like disability, essential job functions, reasonable accommodation and undue hardship
  • What the ADA guidelines are for interacting and communicating with employees
  • How to keep from unknowingly engaging in illegal discrimination in employment and hiring
  • How the ADA and FMLA (Family and Medical Leave Act) are related
