- Is the employer’s offer “reasonable?” There’s that word again: reasonable.
- What is reasonable?
- Does the employer have to provide the accommodation requested by the employee?
- What does undue hardship mean?
- Should we consider providing it with no questions asked if the request would result in a reasonable accommodation?
- How might dignity and morale play a part in this?
These questions are ones that go through managers’ and employees’ minds when a request for accommodation occurs. Attend this presentation to find the answers and to gain assistance prior to making or receiving a request.
With 20 years experience in the vocational rehabilitation, the Delaware State Council For Persons with Disabilities (SCPD) and the Delaware State Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and as Administrator of Business Relations, Ms. Fairwell will offer a unique insight on the business aspect of accommodating those with disabilities.
