THE INTERACTIVE PROCESS: SOUNDS EASY, WHY IS IT SO HARD?
ADA Reasonable Accommodation is not new, yet questions persist in how to navigate the interactive process. This webinar will explore the requirement to provide reasonable accommodation, explore resources, discuss the guidance on reasonable accommodation and the emerging issues in reasonable accommodation. Sometimes hearing about legal blunders others have made can help you from making the same mistake. Title I of the ADA requires employers to provide reasonable accommodations to qualified individuals with disabilities. Failure to provide an accommodation is a form of disability discrimination. Handling ADA accommodation requests is tricky. But having a good ADA policy, making sure employees acknowledge receipt of the policy, and properly instructing managers how to deal with requests are essential tools to help prevent unforeseen disability discrimination claims. We will take you through what is current in accommodations in the workplace.
