Description
More than two years after the January 1, 2009, effective date of [the ADA Amendments Act of 2008 ("ADAAA"), the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission ("EEOC") published final regulations ("Regulations") on March 25, 2011. The Regulations are effective May 24, 2011 - 60 days after publication. Employers, however, should immediately take the Regulations into account in employment decision making, as they will certainly guide EEOC enforcement activities and employee expectations even before May 24. The ADAAA and the Regulations are designed to change the focus of inquiries under the American with Disabilities Act of 1990 ('ADZ') from whether an individual's impairment meets the definition of a "substantial impairment" that constitutes a disability, to issues of discrimination, qualifications, and reasonable accommodation.
