Knowing what is a reasonable accommodation, when they are covered, and who qualifies can be daunting for employees seeking accommodations and employers wanting to comply with best practices. Empower yourself and join us for a primer on employment rights and protections for workers under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Daniel Brown from Independence Inc. will lead the discussion, offering the ADA definitions of disability and reasonable accommodations and an overview of how and when to apply for accommodations.
