Section 504 protects qualified individuals with
disabilities. Under this law, individuals with dis-abilities
are defined as persons with a physical
or mental impairment which substantially limits
one or more major life activities. People who
have a history of, or who are regarded as hav-ing
a physical or mental impairment that sub-stantially
limits one or more major life activities,
are also covered. Major life activities include
caring for one's self, walking, seeing, hearing,
speaking, breathing, working, performing man-ual
tasks, and learning. Some examples of im-pairments
which may substantially limit major
life activities, even with the help of medication
or aids/devices, are: AIDS, alcoholism, blind-ness
or visual impairment, cancer, deafness or
hearing impairment, diabetes, drug addiction,
heart disease, and mental illness.
National law that protects qualified individuals
from discrimination based on their disability.
The nondiscrimination requirements of the law
apply to employers and organizations that re-ceive
financial assistance from any Federal
department or agency, including the U.S.
Section 504 forbids organizations and employ-ers
from excluding or denying individuals with
disabilities an equal opportunity to receive pro-gram
benefits and services. It defines the rights
of individuals with disabilities to participate in,
and have access to, program benefits and ser-vices.
The Oklahoma Department of Transporta-tion
(ODOT) ensures that no person or
groups of persons shall, on the grounds of
race, color, sex, age, national origin, disabil-ity/
handicap, or income status, be excluded
from participation in, be denied the benefits
of, or be otherwise subjected to discrimina-tion
under any and all programs, services,
or activities administered by ODOT, its re-cipients,
sub-recipients, and contractors.
