Default What are my rights when returning to work after disability? - 01-01-2009, 08:57 PM

I have been on disability and I have not worked for some time. As I start looking for work, employers tell me I am automatically not qualified because I do not have any recent experience. I had a trauma injury and I have worked very hard in Physical Therapy to improve myself. Can Employers disqualify me on that basis alone? Is there anything I can do? I am working with the Department of Vocational Rehabilitation also. Isn't this against the Americans with Disabilities Act? How can anyone on disability go back to work if they are automatically disqualified for not having recent experience. It says clearly on the job requirements that you have to have recent experience.Any thoughts? THANK YOU!
