People are not "hired under" the ADA. The ADA merely prohibits discrimination by employers against covered individuals and requires employers to make reasonable accommodations for covered employees.
A covered individual can be fired as long as the employer's action did not discriminate against the employee on the basis of his or her disability. For example, any employee, covered or not, can be terminated for cause.
You could, but you could then probably bring them to court as such actions would be against the law in most places. So in that way, you can't be fired purely for having a disability. They would need other reasons to fire you. If you had not disclosed that you had a disability and then this subsequently had an impact on your job or having such a disability made you ineligible for the job in the first place, then your case would be greatly weakened.
Question 1 Can you be fired if you are on disability due to a medical condition like cancer by your employer? Question 2 Can your employer fire you while on a medical disability over 6 months
That depends on what the disability is.
Yes. If you are collecting disability insurance then you cannot work.
In theory, an employer can not terminate an employee out on disability, assuming you provided sufficient documentation. If you think you've been wrongly terminated, then I'd contact the EEOC. They can provide you with more info and point you in the right direction.
Alcoholism is considered a disability under the law in the US and Canada. You can be fired for behavior while under the influence, but not for being an alcoholic.
yes you can and will
NO! it is a step of having a miracle of birth
If you were fired because of mental illness, then you should collect disability insurance, rather than unemployment insurance, and it lasts much longer.
does bi-polar type 1 qualify you for disability
Disability pension and unlimited pharmaceuticals
My employer just fired me. This means my boss just fired me.
If it is directly related to your disability and that is included in your short term disability policy then yes it would be covered. But if it is just because you dont want to work due to your pregnancy than it will not be covered. Disability is just what it means that you are disabled.
