Marchese Ford Employee Handbook
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the ADA Amendments Act (ADAAA)
The Americans
with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Americans with Disabilities Amendments
Act, known as the ADAAA, are federal laws that prohibit employers with 15 or
more employees from discriminating against applicants and individuals with
disabilities and that when needed provide reasonable accommodations to
applicants and employees who are qualified for a job, with or without
reasonable accommodations, so that they may perform the essential job duties
of the position.
It is the
policy of Marchese Ford to comply with all federal and state laws
concerning the employment of persons with disabilities and to act in
accordance with regulations and guidance issued by the Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission (EEOC). Furthermore, it is our company policy not to
discriminate against qualified individuals with disabilities in regard to
application procedures, hiring, advancement, discharge, compensation,
training or other terms, conditions and privileges of employment.
The company will reasonably accommodate
qualified individuals with a disability so that they can perform the
essential functions of a job unless doing so causes a direct threat to these
individuals or others in the workplace and the threat cannot be eliminated
by reasonable accommodation and/or if the accommodation creates an undue
hardship to Marchese Ford. Contact the Human Resource department with any
questions or requests for accommodation.
