ADA Compliance Update

ADA Compliance Update
Up-to-date legal obligations for monitoring employment practices and handling other ADA workplace issues

1-Hour Audio CD — Now Available!

Are you up to speed on the very latest changes to the ADA? The ADA Amendments Act went into effect on January 1, 2009 … expanding the interpretation of the ADA's coverage and the definition of what disabilities are covered under the Act.

Compliance with the ADA is no laughing matter. Even the slightest misunderstanding or misinterpretation of the Americans with Disabilities Act can land your organization in legal hot water — resulting in possible fines, penalties, investigations, and legal action against you.

Protect your workers from discrimination, and your organization from legal action.

Designed to protect qualified workers and job applicants with disabilities against discrimination, the ADA covers private employers, state and local governments, and educational institutions that employ 15 or more people. The ADA requires employers to make "reasonable accommodations" to allow disabled workers to do their jobs. It requires workers to establish that they are disabled according to the ADA guidelines. A disabled worker must demonstrate that he/she has a physical or mental impairment that limits a major life activity. The worker then must show that he/she can perform the essential functions of the job, with or without reasonable accommodations.

As an employer, it is up to you to be familiar with ADA policies and procedures, be able to navigate complex ADA regulations with ease, and be knowledgeable about up-to-the-minute changes recently imposed by the federal government.

Now in effect: The ADA Amendments Act

Signed into law by President George W. Bush on September 25, 2008, the ADA Amendments Act puts a number of new guidelines into place regarding disabled workers. These changes can be confusing … and interpreting them correctly can often become an exercise in frustration! Don't leave anything to chance — ensure that your ADA policies and procedures are correct, consistent, and follow the letter of the law.

This audio conference will quickly familiarize you with critical changes and revisions such as:

  • Redefining of the term "substantial limits"
  • Expanding the definition of "major life activities" by providing two separate lists of activities
  • Mitigating measures — other than eye glasses or contact lenses, mitigating measures shall not be considered when assessing whether a person is disabled
  • Clarifying that an impairment remains a disability even when it is non-active or in remission
  • An individual will not be regarded as disabled if the perceived or actual disability is minor or transitory

The ADA Amendments Act also clarifies that it is to be construed "in favor of broad coverage of individuals under this Act, to the maximum extent permitted by the terms of this Act." With this in mind, it's imperative that you are familiar with all parts of the Act, as new amendments rebuke decisions by the Supreme Court that had previously narrowed the law's interpretation.

Who will benefit?
ADA Compliance Update is perfect for HR professionals, HR assistants, managers, supervisors — in short, anyone who is responsible for upholding ADA guidelines within his or her organization.

Don't miss your opportunity to attend this powerful 1-hour audio conference! You'll become familiar with the ADA's most recent changes and ensure you fully comprehend all workplace issues that this complex law covers. Sign up today and gain the information you need to stay in complete compliance with the ADA Amendments Act — and out of legal trouble!
