assistive technology.

The individual may, or may not,
have an impairment which is not
substantially limiting but is treated
by the employer as having such
impairment;
or because of the attitude of others
toward the condition
REGARDED AS HAVING A DISABILITY

Amends "Regarded As"
An applicant or employee is
regarded as disabled if they are
subjected to an action
prohibited by the ADA.
Note: not entitled to a
reasonable accommodation
Slide - 10
"Regarded as" Standard
does not mean a person has been
the victim of discrimination. It
means only that a person is an
individual entitled to the
protections of the ADA. Whether
unlawful discrimination occurred is
a separate determination.
