A. The ADA prevents employers from discrimination in employment on the basis of a disability. Employers cannot use a disability to make decisions in:

• hiring;
• discharge;
• promotion;
• compensation;
• job training or;
• benefits.

Specifically, the ADA prohibits:

• not making reasonable accommodations to the known physical limitations to an otherwise qualified individual with a disability, unless such accommodations would impose "undue hardship" on the operation of the business;
• denying equal opportunity to a qualified individual with a disability;
• limiting, classifying or segregating any job applicant or employee because of a disability and;
• retaliation against anyone for asserting their rights under the ADA.
