You are discussing hiring people with disabilities with an employer. The employer asks the following questions:
If I hire a person with disabilities or promote the person, how will my company's health-insurance and workers compensation costs be affected?
They should not be unduly affected, given that according to the ADA website, an employer "must provide a reasonable accommodation if a person with a disability needs one in order to apply for a job, perform a job, or enjoy benefits equal" to other employees, but it must not produce an "undue hardship" for the employer (ADA, EEOC, 2004).
Does the ADA require me, as an employer, to provide health insurance to an employee who is disabled?
What tax incentives are available to employers who hire people with disabilities?
"To offset the cost of accommodations," the government provides tax credits, such as the Small Business Tax Credit and vocational rehabilitation funding (ADA, EEOC, 2004).
Where can I find out about how to make job accommodations if I do not know how to go about this?
The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission provides a primer on the ADA on its website
