[IPAC-List] ADAAA Regs

[RICHARD TONOWSKI]

With respect to testing issues, the word here is that there's a new rule for "uncorrected vision" qualification standards.  For other types of testing or qualification standards, even if the ADAAA did not make a change, the  "regarded as" prong greatly expands who could bring a claim under 1630.10 or any other provision.
 
The contact for at EEOC for ADAAA advice is Jeanne Goldberg, Office of Legal Counsel.  Reach her by phone at (202) 663-4693 or on e-mail at jeanne.goldberg at eeoc.gov.  
 
Office of Legal Counsel provides enforcement advice both internally and externally for EEOC.  Jeanne specializes in ADAAA matters and she told me that I could give out her name and number to the testing professional associations.
