Problem concerning americans with disabilities act


Problem: Patricia abused alcohol for a long time, but overcame her habit and has been 'clean' for over three years. Patricia went back to school, received her degree, and applied for a job as an administrative assistant at a local factory. Kris, the hiring manager at the factory, likes Patricia's well-qualified resume but learns from a co-worker about Patricia's addictive past. On this basis, Kris denies Patricia the job. Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Kris's decision: a. is permissible because hiring Kris would impose an undue hardship on the company b. is permissible because past or present abuse of alcohol does not qualify as a disability under the ADA c. is permissible as long as Kris provides a reasonable accommodation to Patricia d. e. violates the ADA because Kris is required not to consider alcohol abuse under any circumstances in the hiring process e. violates the ADA because Patricia is a qualified person with a record of a disability
