You Are Protected Under the ADA

Employers cannot discriminate against you because of your disability pursuant to the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA).

The ADA protects disabled workers or job applicants from workplace discrimination in:

Hiring
Promotions
Wages
Benefits
Termination

The ADA applies not only to private employers but also to local and state governments as well as non-profit entities. It covers workers who work for any such entities that employ 15 or more employees. However, even if you work for an employer with less than 15 employees, you may be protected from disability discrimination under Maryland state law.

Addressing Disability Discrimination in Baltimore and Surrounding Areas

Living and working in Baltimore, you may be familiar with the challenges that come with navigating the local job market, especially if you have a disability. The Law Office of Andrew M. Dansicker understands the unique hurdles faced by residents in our community. Whether you're applying for a position at one of the many healthcare institutions like Johns Hopkins Hospital or seeking employment with the City of Baltimore, discrimination should never be a barrier.

Local government entities such as the Maryland Commission on Civil Rights (MCCR) and the Baltimore Office of Civil Rights and Wage Enforcement are dedicated to protecting your rights. These organizations work tirelessly to ensure that all residents, regardless of their abilities, have equal access to employment opportunities. However, despite these protections, disability discrimination remains a significant issue in our area.

Common pain points for Baltimore residents include being unfairly passed over for promotions, facing wage disparities, or experiencing unjust termination. These issues can be particularly prevalent in industries that dominate our local economy, such as healthcare, education, and public service. Our firm is deeply familiar with these challenges and is committed to helping you navigate them.
