Questions to Consider
• What limitations is the applicant, candidate, or employee
experience?
• How do these limitations affect the employee and the
employee’s job performance?
• What specific job tasks are problematic as a result of these
limitations?
• What accommodations are available to reduce or eliminate
these problems? Are all possible resources being used to
determine possible accommodations?

8
Questions to Consider
• Can the employee provide information on possible
accommodation solutions?
• Once accommodations are in place how do we evaluate the
effectiveness of the accommodations?
• On an “as need to know basis”, who needs to be informed of the
accommodation? i.e. supervisor, parking attendant, etc.
• Would human resources or personnel departments, supervisors,
or coworkers benefit from education and training on disability
awareness? Who can provide it?
