How do you decide whether an accommodation request is reasonable? This workshop delves into each of these and other critical topics related to accommodations of employees with disabilities.

At the end of this workshop, staff will be able to:

  • Recognize common accessibility barriers in the workplace

We acknowledge and thank the diverse Indigenous peoples whose presence marks this territory on which peoples of the world now gather.
