Right to Reasonable Accommodations at Work It is an unfair employment practice, for an employer with 15 or more part-time or full-time employees, employment agency, or labor organization to not make reasonable accommodations for a qualified employee or job applicant who has a disability. A reasonable accommodation includes improving the accessibility of the facilities, restructuring the job schedule, modifying equipment or devices, or providing aides on a temporary or periodic basis. To decide if something is a reasonable accommodation, one needs to consider: the size of the business or organization; the type of operation and its location; the type and cost of the accommodation; the financial ability of the business to pay for the change; and the efforts the business has already made to accommodate the employee.
