What are workplace accommodations and how can I refer someone?
A reasonable accommodation in the workplace is an adjustment or modification to a work environment or process that allows an employee with a disability to perform the essential functions of the job, participate in the application process, or enjoy the benefits of their employment.
Regardless of campus or type of employment (faculty, student, part-time, temporary, etc.), all employees with disabilities may request accommodations. Employees should be directed to the Office for University Accessibility process for requesting accommodations and may contact OUA with any questions.
