Three Types of Disability
1. Physical Disability
A physical disability is something that affects the way your body performs. It would be something that limits what you are able to do.
2. Mental Disability
If you suffer from a mental disability that prevents you from performing that is a protected disability. Those mental disabilities can include schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, OCD, etc. The conditions that are not protected are things like kleptomania, gambling, etc.
3. Perceived Disability
You may not actually have a disability but if your employer thinks you do and decides to discriminate against you, that is illegal as well. A perceived disability is protected in the same way as an actual disability.
This is how a scenario like this would go:
You arrive for an interview for a job at a grocery store. You had a brief phone interview and it went really well. You pull up in a vehicle that you share with a family member who has a disability. The car has a license plates that displays a handicap sign. You don’t actually park in a spot for people with disabilities. The employer sees you exit this vehicle and thinks you are in some way disabled but they don’t actually know.
You go in for your interview and it goes alright. The employer thinks about how your assumed disability would affect your job performance. They know that they can’t ask you what disability you have. But ultimately they decide to not hire you based on this assumed disability.
Regardless if you had this disability or not, this is illegal for an employer to do. They are not allowed to hire or fire based on a confirmed or alleged disability. This completely violates federal law.

Successful Cases
We recently had a woman come to us after her employer would not provide her reasonable accommodations for her pregnancy leave. They told her she would only be allowed 4 weeks of leave after she gave birth to her son even though her coworker was allowed 6 weeks of medical leave for another condition.
We investigated this case after sitting down for a consultation with her. We told her what her legal options were and she decided to take legal action. Her rights were clearly violated. We brought her claim and were able to give her some justice for this.
Another case we recently had success with was a man who recently had a complaint that his employer would not adjust the work load for him. The man was unable to lift heavy objects because it aggravated his back problem. The employer fired him instead of accommodating his reasonable request.
