The ADA and most state laws protect qualified workers with disabilities.
There are three ways in which a worker can qualify for protection under the ADA:
•The worker has a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits a major life activity
•The worker has a record or history of impairment.
•You regard the worker -- even incorrectly -- as having a disability. In other words, you can't treat workers less favorably because you believe them to be disabled, even if you are wrong.
