The Americans with Disabilities Act (42 U.S.C. §12101 et seq.) requires public accommodations to provide reasonable accommodations to individuals with disabilities. For a security officer, the most accurate practical implication is:
Explanation
Title III of the ADA (42 U.S.C. §12181 et seq.) requires places of public accommodation to provide reasonable modifications to policies and procedures and to allow service animals (limited to dogs and, in some cases, miniature horses, individually trained to do work for a person with a disability). Documentation is generally not required (a); only two questions are permitted regarding service animals — (1) is the animal required because of a disability and (2) what work or task is it trained to perform. Most retail and commercial settings are public accommodations covered by Title III (d is wrong). Excluding properly trained service animals (c) violates federal law.
