Addresses the attitudes and legalities managers and supervisors must understand in order to effectively work within the ADA guidelines.

Product Description

The ADA poses both a challenge and an opportunity to businesses. In many cases, people with disabilities are well qualified and eager to participate in the workplace. Managers and supervisors need to be prepared to receive them - to interview, hire and supervise them.

This video addresses the attitudes and legalities managers and supervisors must understand in order to effectively work within the ADA guidelines. Five strong, confident narrators - each with a disability - express a positive underlying message about disabilities. Six realistic scenarios illustrate simple, inexpensive solutions to issues raised by the law including:

Interviewing/Essential Functions
Marginal Functions
Customer & Employee Reactions
Effective Supervision
Reasonable Accommodation
Undue Hardship

Training Points

Effectively interview applicants with disabilities
Establish "essential functions" for each job description
Distinguish "marginal functions" of a job from essential functions
Deal appropriately with customer and coworker reactions to people with disabilities
Understand and provide "reasonable accommodations" without undue hardship to the business
Evaluate realistically what people with disabilities can do
