Reasonable accommodations remove workplace barriers that would otherwise impede qualified employees with disabilities from performing jobs, or gaining access to the benefits of employment. Employers are not allowed to discriminate against disabled employees who could perform the job if reasonable accommodations were made.

The law requires that employers provide reasonable accommodation for individuals who have disabilities. These disabilities could be physical, mental, temporary, or the result of a permanent chronic condition. Accommodations may include:
- Job transfers
- Time off for medical appointments
- Ability to work from home
- Modifications to work station
- Adaptive tools or technology, such as voice recognition software
- Building modifications for accessibility.
- Breast feeding accommodations
Once your employer knows you need an accommodation, your employer is required to engage with you in a good faith conversation with you to consider possible accommodations for your disability. They are also required to provide you with an accommodation as long as it does not impose an undue hardship. If your employer has failed to make reasonable accommodations for you to do your job, you may be entitled to compensation for discrimination in your place of work.
