Why should you attend?
Title I of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 requires employers to provide reasonable accommodation to qualified individuals with disabilities so long as it does not create an undue hardship on the employer. However, the COVID-19 pandemic had made it even more difficult for employers to navigate the Americans with Disabilities Act and The Interactive process. Missteps can be costly and have severe legal consequences.
