Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) is a mental disorder that causes an individual to have difficulty paying attention. Symptoms include hyperactivity, forgetfulness, poor impulse control, and distractibility. People suffering from ADD often have difficulty concentrating, and paying attention to details. Although ADD is thought not to have a cure, it may be treated with stimulant medication and psychotherapy.
If you have ADD you should know that your employer may not discriminate against you because of your condition. Your employer may not treat you differently because of your Attention Deficit Disorder. If you believe that your boss has discriminated against you because of your ADD you may be able to bring a suit if you can show that your disability results in physical limitations, that you can perform the essential functions of the job, and that your employer discriminated against you.
Examples of ways in which you employer may have discriminated against you because of your Attention Deficit Disorder include not allowing you to miss work for medical appointments, not allowing you to take a reasonable time off work, not providing reasonable on-site accommodations for your ADD, and/or not allowing you extra time to complete your tasks at work.
