Workplace access needs a practical next step
A workplace can say “we value inclusion” and still leave someone wrestling with a barrier every day. I want the conversation to get more useful: what part of the job is getting in the way, what change could help, and who will follow up?
Today I’m looking at the Job Accommodation Network’s free workplace resources. Its toolkit includes process guidance, sample documentation and tools for checking whether an accommodation is working. A useful starting point—not a promise that every request will have the same answer.
At noon, I’ll share a practical guide to preparing for that conversation and keeping the focus on access, dignity and doing the work.
