Disability

Christine Culgin June 6, 2017

In regards to employee benefits and the ADA, a disability is any physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more of the major life activities of an individual. With respect to the law, this impairment must be documented or the individual must be recognized as having said impairment.
