On March 25, 2011, your organization’s responsibilities under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) changed!

The new regulations dramatically broadened the definition of what is covered under “disability’’ — and increased the emphasis on employer accommodation. That makes it even more important that you fully understand what’s required of your organization under the law!

Are you absolutely positive you know what qualifies as a reasonable accommodation under the most recent regulations? Is your organization — and its employees — fully protected by its policies, or are you leaving yourself open to legal or financial penalties?

Failure to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act could cost your company a fortune!
