If you are denied a raise due to disability, by law, what are some consequences the company may face?

Explanation:

The Americans with Disabilities Amendments Act of 2010 (42 U.S.C. 12101 et seq.)

The ADA makes it illegal for private employers, state and local governments, employment agencies, and labor unions to discriminate against qualified individuals with disabilities in job application procedures, hiring, firing, advancement, compensation, job training, and other areas of employment. Sections of the ADA not relating to employment address discrimination by governmental agencies and in public accommodations.

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is the agency of the federal government responsible for investigating charges of job discrimination related to disability discrimination in workplaces of 15 or more employees. Most states have their own agencies that enforce state laws against discrimination.

Victims of disability discrimination can recover remedies to include:

   back pay

   hiring

   reasonable accommodation

   promotion

   reinstatement

   front pay

   compensatory damages (emotional pain and suffering)

   punitive damages (damages to punish the employer)

   other actions that will make an individual "whole" (in the condition she or    he would have been but for the discrimination)

Remedies also may include payment of:

   attorneys' fees

   expert witness fees

   court costs.

An employer may be required to post notices to all employees addressing the violations of a specific charge and advising them of their right to be free of discrimination, harassment, and retaliation. If necessary, such notices must be accessible to persons with visual or other disabilities that affect reading.

The employer also may be required to take corrective or preventive actions with regard to the source of the discrimination and minimize the chance it will happen again, as well as discontinue the specific discriminatory practices involved in the case.
