Explain the term "qualified individual with a disability."


Qualified Individual with a disability means an individual with a disability who is able to perform, with reasonable accommodation, the requirements of the job in question, despite the disability. The ADA and the Rehabilitation Act impose obligations not to discriminate against an otherwise qualified individual with a disability. The individual claiming to be qualified has the burden of demonstrating his or her ability to meet all physical requirements legitimately necessary for the performance of duties. An employer is not required to hire a person with a disability who is not capable of performing the duties of the job. However, the regulations under the act require the employer to make "reasonable accommodation" to the disabilities of individuals.?
