The EEOC recommends that employers use an “interactive process” to determine reasonable accommodation when needed for an employee with a disability.  This simply means that employers and employees with disabilities who request accommodations work together to come up with effective workplace adjustments.  Here are six steps to help employers navigate the accommodation process in the workplace.
