Abstract
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was designed to guarantee equal opportunity in employment, public accommodation, transportation, state and local government services and telecommunications for individuals with physical or mental disabilities. The law applies to both public and private employers. An individual with a disability is defined as an individual who has a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities. In order to comply with the ADA, organizations are required to make reasonable accommodations unless making the accommodation results in an undue hardship.
