Jan 1st ADA Amendments Act
HR Hero Audio Conference on CD and Streaming Audio
Jonathan R. Mook and Audra K. Hamilton
With each CD purchase, you get FREE access to streaming audio. CD and streaming audio are available 3 days after each live event.
Even though the live seminar on this topic has already taken place, you can still hear it! For your convenience, we've recorded it on CD and audio stream, so you can listen when you have time or share it with colleagues in your organization.
Now that the ADA Amendments Act of 2008 has taken effect, HR Hero is presenting a special encore audio conference, ADA Amendments Act Effective Jan. 1: Get Ready For New Challenges.
On January 1, 2009, it will get tougher for employers to defend ADA claims...
What does the new Act change for employers? What stays the same? Learn how to comply with the new amendments by participating in this critical live event. In just 90 minutes, two recognized national authorities on the ADA will show you how the new amendments reverse a number of Supreme Court decisions, including:
- Sutton v. United Airlines (1999) in which the Supreme Court ruled that the ADA didn’t protect visually impaired pilots since glasses and contact lenses were “mitigating measures” that prevented the pilots from being considered disabled
- Murphy v. UPS (1999) in which the Court ruled that because a truck driver’s high blood pressure could be controlled by medication, it didn’t qualify for protection under the ADA
- Toyota v. Williams (2002) in which the Court ruled that an assembly line workers’ carpal tunnel syndrome didn’t warrant accommodation because it didn’t substantially limit major life activities
Your speakers will also cover:
- How the Act amends the existing law and results in an expansion of those persons who may be classified as disabled
- What the amendments change regarding “mitigating measures” such as treatment that could limit protections under the old law
- Changes regarding the language requiring an ailment to impede a major life activity

ADA Amendments Act Effective Jan. 1: Get Ready For New Challenges is just $227.
