PWD: prohibition on
discrimination
No entity, whether public or private, shall discriminate against a qualified PWD by reason of
disability in regard to job application procedures, the hiring, promotion, or discharge of
employees, employee compensation, job training, and other terms, conditions and privileges
of employment. The following constitutes acts of discrimination:
a) Limiting, segregating or classifying a job applicant with disability in such a manner that
adversely affects his work opportunities;
b) Using qualification standards, employment tests or other selection criteria that screen out
or tend to screen out a PWD unless such standards, tests or other selection criteria are
shown to be job-related for the position in question and are consistent with business
necessity;
c) Utilizing standards, criteria, or methods of administration that:
 1) have the effect of discrimination on the basis of disability; or

 2) perpetuate the discrimination of others who are subject to common administrative
control.
d) Providing less compensation, such as salary, wage or other forms of remuneration and
fringe benefits, to a qualified employee with disability, by reason of his disability, than the
amount to which a non-disabled person performing the same work is entitled;
e) Favoring a non-disabled employee over a qualified employee with disability with respect to
promotion, training opportunities, study and scholarship grants, solely on account of the
latter's disability;
f) Re-assigning or transferring an employee with disability to a job or position he cannot
perform by reason of his disability;
g) Dismissing or terminating the services of an employee with disability by reason of his
disability unless the employer can prove that he impairs the satisfactory performance of the
work involved to the prejudice of the business entity; provided, however, the employer first
sought to provide reasonable accommodations for PWDs;
h) Failing to select or administer in the most effective manner employment tests which
accurately reflect the skills, aptitud3 or other factor of the applicant or employee with disability
that such tests purports to measure, rather than the impaired sensory, manual or speaking
skills of such applicant or employees, if any; and
i) Excluding PWDs from membership in labor unions or similar organizations.
