As stated by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, some disabilities included in the ADA civil rights law include; autism, diabetes, multiple sclerosis, bipolar disorder and many others.

From the case stated above, the cashier, a diabetic ate a bag of potato chips without paying but paid as soon as her shift ended which led to the termination of her appointment.

She ate the chips without paying because she realized her blood glucose level was low and was about to have a hypoglycemia attack.

Her employer knew of her disability but still went ahead to fire her, violating her ADA civil rights.

Knowing about her disability, they would have accommodated her seeing that she prevented an impending emergency (hypoglycemia attack). No matter how strict the organization’s policies are, they should be flexible especially with disabled people.
