Title I Technical Assistance Manual

7.2 Overview of Legal Obligations

• An employer may not discriminate against a qualified individual with a disability because of the disability, in any employment practice, or any term, condition or benefit of employment.

• An employer may not deny an employment opportunity because an individual, with or without a disability, has a relationship or association with an individual who has a disability.

• An employer may not participate in a contractual or other arrangement that subjects the employer's qualified applicant or employee with a disability to discrimination.

• An employer may not discriminate or retaliate against any individual, whether or not the individual is disabled, because the individual has opposed a discriminatory practice, filed a discrimination charge, or participated in any way in enforcing the ADA.
