 Since the 1970s, people with cognitive or mental health disabilities have been involved in community employment of all kinds and also have developed freestanding affirmative industries and supported employment services in conjunction with the government.These rights are protected under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, now revised in 2008  Human rights laws, still operational in states, govern employment applications for employment, and the employer is restricted from asking pre-employment questions on criminal arrests or discriminating on this basis (See, Human Rights Laws of the state of New York).However, unbeknownst to many communities and organizations, management rights, instead of human rights, have been inserted in contracts in the US.
