The US Department of Labor recently announced the availability of a new tool to help America’s employers ensure their employment policies and practices do not discriminate against qualified individuals with disabilities.

The interactive, online Disability Nondiscrimination Law Advisor helps employers quickly determine which federal disability nondiscrimination laws apply to their business or organization and their responsibilities under them. To do this, it asks users to answer a few relevant questions and then generates a customized list of federal disability nondiscrimination laws that likely apply, along with easy-to-understand information about employers’ responsibilities under each of them.

The Disability Nondiscrimination Law Advisor is one of a series of elaws (Employment Laws Assistance for Workers and Small Businesses) Advisors developed by DOL to help employers and employees understand federal employment laws. Contact Vision Payroll if you have further questions on the Disability Nondiscrimination Law Advisor.
