| Abstract | This newsletter theme issue outlines the intentions, concepts, and structures of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) as it relates to employment. The article simplifies the provisions of Title I into the following statement: "If, despite my disability and despite some cost to be borne by my employer, I can perform the basic functions of the job I have or want, my disability is an unlawful reason for my employer to deny it to me or treat me differently from other, nondisabled employees." The particular provisions of the law are then outlined, including effective dates, covered employers, protected individuals, covered physical or mental impairments, when protections apply, essential functions of a job, reasonable accommodation, exclusion for illegal use of drugs, prohibited conduct, pre-employment inquiries and medical exams, qualification standards, and enforcement and penalties. Employers are encouraged to view their ADA responsibilities not as legal limitations but as a challenge to deal with individuals with disabilities on their own terms in the workforce and the workplace as never before.
