The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) bars disability discrimination in employment, government services, public accommodations, transportation, and telecommunications. This article focuses on Titles I (private employment) and III (public accommodations). Title I bars discrimination against qualified individuals because of their disability in the terms, conditions, and privileges of employment. Title III proscribes disability discrimination by public accommodations and commercial facilities. Existing facilities must be made accessible if the changes are "readily achievable," that is, easily accomplished, without much difficulty or expense. New construction and major renovations must be designed and constructed so they are readily accessible to people with disabilities.
