Class Description

Federal employees are making their way back to the physical workplace. There is a lot to think through as you prepare for the en masse return, and one of those considerations should most definitely be reasonable accommodation.

Employee needs, physical conditions, and medication adjustments can evolve over such an extended period. Once successful accommodations may no longer be effective. You must have a process in place to properly re-evaluate the effectiveness of employees’ accommodations.

Get ready, you’re going to hear a lot about the word “telework” in these accommodation discussions. After all, employees successfully worked remotely for almost two years, so why wouldn’t it be a viable and effective accommodation? Are you prepared to make the right determination on a request to telework as an accommodation?

New conditions have emerged over the last couple of years and you should be ready to provide reasonable accommodations for qualified individuals with long haul COVID, breathing challenges, and mental health conditions.

Over two hours, FELTG Instructor and Attorney at Law Katherine Atkinson will make sure you are prepared for this new world of reasonable accommodation.

Learning takeaways

Attendees will learn how to:

  • Effectively revisit existing accommodations.
  • Use the interactive process to find an effective reasonable accommodation.
  • Determine if telework is an effective accommodation.
