The Question:

I was recently told that I qualified at my job under the Americans with Disablity Act and that my employer was required to "accomodate" me at my job. Where can I find a copy of this act in order that I may look at it further.

The Answer:

The Job Accommodation Network has what you are looking for and much more.

Once on the site, if you click on "Documents" it will give you a list of several links, including one to a copy of the statute and one with some answers to commonly asked questions about the law and its enforcement. I hope this helps.
