Webinar: ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) as Risk Management for Subcontractors and Suppliers

Description

Speakers:

Jon Faill, ADA Compliance Director, HCA (Healthcare Corporation of America)

Webinar Description
Are you managing your ADA “risk?” This webinar will provide subcontractors and suppliers an overview of ADA concepts and regulations, as well as methods to contain ADA-related risks.

The “risk” posed by the ADA is a third-party lawsuit for ADA compliance. This lawsuit can name everyone that was involved in a construction project, from the owner to the subcontractors, or just the one with deep pockets. The risk includes not only ADA compliance issues, but also business and civil rights issues.

Risk management options vary depending on what role you play in the construction process. As a subcontractor or supplier, you may not understand your level of risk. Subcontractors typically are tied to the contractor via a contract and share the contractor’s risk. Suppliers generally will disclose in cut sheets if they are ADA compliant. However, a compliant product may not comply with the ADA. 

This webinar is designed to:   
 

• Review basic ADA concepts and regulations
• Show you the risk posed by the ADA
• Give you risk management options to manage ADA risk
