NYGiants is right that the ADA disability analysis is whether an impairment substantially limits a major life activity.  So if the back injury substantially limits a major life activity, it's a disability under the ADA.  The reasonable accommodation analysis is related to the essential functions in the employee's job.  A person can have an ADA disability without needing an accommodation.
