Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
Americans with Disabilities Act.
An Accommodation is a means, creative solution, equipment or idea that helps an employee meet the essential functions of his/her job.
Essential functions are duties that are required for performing the job. These are listed on the Employee Work Profile (EWP).
If you are requesting an accommodation this would be provided to you by a Benefits Specialist with the forms required for the request.
No, many individuals function without an accommodation. This is a private matter and at the discretion of the employee.
Work with your medical provider for input on what works best for your condition.
You may start with your supervisor or with Human Resources.
Accommodations need to be medically documented and approved through Human Resources.
