Question 2 • *GV 2018 - P.E. Health Science - PE201

Which of the following statements are true about the Americans with Disabilities Act?

Answer
A
Employers should select the most qualified candidates without regard to disability.
B
Employers should give preferential treatment to employees with disabilities.
C
Employers must make any accommodation requested by a person with disabilities, even if that causes a serious hardship for the company.
D
The ADA applies to companies with 15 or more employees.

Explanation

The ADA requires employers to make hiring decisions based on qualifications, without discriminating because of disability, so A is true. It generally covers employers with 15 or more employees, making D true. Employers do not have to give preferential treatment, and they may decline an accommodation that would cause undue hardship, so B and C are false.
