Reasonable Accommodation Process
The reasonable accommodation process typically involves:
- A request from the applicant/employee to their employer.
- The interactive process, where the employer evaluates the request and may suggest or discuss various possible options with the applicant/employee.
- A decision, which could be:
- The reasonable accommodation is granted as requested.
- A reasonable accommodation is granted with different specifics from what was requested.
- The reasonable accommodation was denied.
Employers do not need to provide a reasonable accommodation when an employee has not made a request, however if an employer notices that there is an obvious unmet disability-related need, they should ask the employee if they need assistance. In most instances the reasonable accommodation process should start with the employee making a request to the employer. When making the request, it is best practice for the employee to identify themselves as a person with a disability, have an idea of what they need, and clearly establish a connection between their disability-related limitations and what they are requesting.Once the request has been made, this opens up a dialogue between employee and employer that is formally known as the interactive process. The employer has an obligation to evaluate the request and determine whether it is possible to provide it without undue hardship.
