The Americans with Disabilities Act bans discrimination against people with disabilities in employment and requires accessibility to public buildings. Which law is this?

• A. Americans with Disabilities Act
• B. Equal Pay Act
• C. Fair Labor Standards Act
• D. Immigration Reform and Control Act

Answer: (A)

Disability discrimination in employment and building accessibility are addressed by the Americans with Disabilities Act. This law protects people with disabilities from workplace discrimination and requires employers to make reasonable accommodations for qualified employees. It also mandates accessibility in public buildings and spaces so people with disabilities can access them. The other acts focus on different issues: wage equality between genders (Equal Pay Act), minimum wage and overtime rules (Fair Labor Standards Act), and immigration status in employment (Immigration Reform and Control Act). So the described protections come from the Americans with Disabilities Act.
