Question 1:
There are a few categories of persons who may be considered to be “disabled” and protected by the ADA. First, in your own words, identify those categories. Also, tell me which persons are not protected by the ADA. Then, find a case where an employer disputed that an applicant or employee was actually “disabled” under the law and describe the dispute (what were the Plaintiff’s and Defendant’s basic arguments?) as well as the court’s decision and reasoning.
Question 2:
A person is not entitled to protection under the ADA unless they are 1) “disabled” and as long as they are 2) “qualified.” Do some research and describe, in your own words, what it means to be “qualified.” What are “essential functions” of a job and who decides what is or is not “essential?” Then, find a case involving the ADA where the central dispute was whether the applicant or employee was “qualified.” Tell me what each side argued and how the court resolved the dispute.
Question 3:
The ADA requires “reasonable accommodations.” First, in your own words, what does this mean? What must an employer do? Then, imagine you are a hospitality manager in a large hotel. You have a number of disabled employees. Identify at least four (4) different disabilities your employees may have and for each disability identify a reasonable accommodation you may provide. Finally, in your own words, when can you refuse to provide a reasonable accommodation to an applicant or employee who requests one?
