The Reasonable Accommodations in Employment workshop focuses on the steps a person with a disability would take to request a reasonable accommodation. Attendees will discuss how to talk about the supports needed to perform their essential job functions instead of focusing on their disability. During this one-and-a-half-hour workshop, attendees will participate in guided exercises where they:
- describe their functional limitations and not their disability,
- review a job description to practice identifying the essential functions of a job, and
- draft an outline of an accommodation request based on best practice.
