Job site accommodation is the process of modifying or rearranging job tasks (parts of a job) to allow a person with a disability to continue to work. Often a person with a disability can complete most of the job tasks required for a job, however, there may be specific job tasks that the client cannot complete without modification due to the limitations imposed by the disability.
The service authorization should identify the specific functional limitation that needs to be addressed. It is essential that the counselor work with the employer to achieve the required services. Counselors are reminded of ADA and 504 responsibilities; however, the success of the clients rehabilitation takes precedence.
For in-house job site accommodations refer to Chapter 1.02 of the MDRS Policy Manual.
