EEOC Issues Revised Publications on Employment of Veterans with Disabilities

The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has released two updated publications about Veterans with disabilities and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), [_Veterans and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA): A Guide for Employers_][1] and [_Understanding Your Employment Rights Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA): A Guide for Veterans_][2]. The guides explain changes to the law due to the [ADA Amendments Act of 2008][3], which make it easier for Veterans and others with many different kinds of disabilities to get [reasonable accommodations][4] that can help them succeed at work.
