Employers are required to provide needed and reasonable accommodations under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) unless doing so would impose an, "undue hardship," on the employer. Title I of the ADA, which is enforced by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), provides protection to qualified people with disabilities from discrimination on the basis of disability. A, "reasonable accommodation," in relation to employment involves a change in a person's workplace that enables them to perform the essential functions of their job.
