According to Title 1 of the ADA, how many employees must an employer have to be subject to the Act?

5 or more employees
10 or more employees
15 or more employees
20 or more employees

The correct answer is: 15 or more employees

Title I of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) specifies that an employer must have 15 or more employees for the provisions of the act to apply. This part of the law is designed to ensure that individuals with disabilities are not discriminated against in the hiring process, employment, training, and promotions within the workplace. Having 15 or more employees establishes a threshold that reflects a certain size of the workforce, which is essential for compliance and the enforcement of equal opportunity rights. Employers below this threshold are not bound by the ADA's requirements, which focuses on maintaining fair treatment for employees and job applicants with disabilities. Understanding this threshold is critical for both employers and employees, as it affects the protections and rights available to individuals with disabilities within various work environments.
