Overview: The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) extended employment nondiscrimination to "qualified persons with disabilities" The vagueness of some of the words and definitions in the ADA create many opportunities for plaintiffs' attorneys to attack personnel policies. They create many challenges for human resource professionals and for county elected and appointed officials as well. ADA is a wonderful public policy, opening opportunities to millions. The ADA becomes a positive part of HR policies, and the county government as well as disabled person comes out "winners."
