This Guidance examines what "reasonable accommodation" means and who is entitled to receive it. The Guidance addresses what constitutes a request for reasonable accommodation, the form and substance of the request, and an employer's ability to ask questions and seek documentation after a request has been made. Under the law, EEOC must provide reasonable accommodation to qualified employees or applicants with disabilities,[1] unless to do so would cause undue hardship. EEOCs Procedures fully comply with the requirements of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.People with disabilities may just have the skills and competencies you require within your organization yet they are often under-employed.
It is important to check with your provincial/territorial Human Rights Commission.
