HLAA Task Force for Accessible, Inclusive Employment
Supporting communication access in the workplace for people with hearing loss.
Even though the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) prohibits discrimination in hiring and employment, people with hearing loss may still face challenges on the job and during the hiring process. Having the right tools and strategies can help you succeed at work.
Common employment issues for people with hearing loss include:
- Disclosing your disability
- Knowing your rights
- Asking for accommodations
The HLAA Employment Task Force presents quarterly webinars and other resources to help navigate job-related challenges.
