Title 1 of the ADA – Employment Requires employers to provide reasonable accommodations to qualified applicants or employees. A “reasonable accommodation” is a change that accommodates employees with disabilities so they can do the job without causing the employer “undue hardship” (too much difficulty or expense).
Content to consider in body of letter: Identify yourself as a person with a disability. State that you are requesting accommodations under the ADA (or the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 if you are a federal employee) Identify your specific problematic job tasks. Identify your accommodation ideas.
If you believe that you or someone else was discriminated against based on a disability, you can file an Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) complaint against: a state government or local government, such as a: public hospital. public school. other state or local government program.
Complaints under state law must be filed within 180 days of the date you became aware you were being discriminated against or the date of the alleged illegal act. You may file a complaint with the Commission by calling (804) 225-2292, visiting the office at 900 E.
However, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 did not protect people with disabilities. Discrimination against people with disabilities would not be addressed until 1973 when Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 became law, and later still in 1990 when the ADA was passed.
