FAQ

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is a federal civil rights law that prohibits discrimination against people with disabilities in everyday activities.

This subchapter shall not apply to an employer with respect to the employment of aliens outside any State, or to a religious corporation, association, educational institution, or society with respect to the employment of individuals of a particular religion to perform work connected with the carrying on by such ...

California takes ADA compliance very seriously; state law declares that any business that chooses to violate the act is also committing a civil rights violation. Therefore, a violator can expect to be fined a minimum of $4000, in addition to any legal costs they incur.

There are two options for filing an ADA complaint: Online. File a complaint by submitting a report on the Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division website. Mail. Fill out and send the paper ADA Complaint Form (Regular Format | Large Format) or a letter containing the same information, to: U.S. Department of Justice.

All you need is a valid email address and a phone number. Once you have an account, call 800-884-1684. Our staff will associate your account with the complaint.

The ADA covers the same employees as Title VII but further requires employees to have, have a record or history of – or be perceived by the employer to have – a mental or physical impairment that substantially limits a major life activity (such as sleeping, eating, walking, etc.).

Title I requires employers with 15 or more employees to provide qualified individuals with disabilities an equal opportunity to benefit from the full range of employment-related opportunities available to others.

In general, to be entitled to an accommodation under the ADA, you must work for an employer with 15 or more employees (or a state or local government), you must be a person with a disability as defined in the ADA, and you must need the accommodation because of your disability.

Title VII prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex and national origin. This guide provides an overview of Federal civil rights laws that ensure equal opportunity for people with disabilities. The California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) provides similar protections. Any violation of the ADA is also a violation of state law. The ADA employment-related provisions serve to incorporate the procedures and remedies found in Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
