At JAN, I often discuss options with employees about what might be useful to include and how to clearly explain what accommodation is needed.Īs a starting point, JAN offers general guidance about writing an accommodation request letter, which lays out possible elements to include in the body of the letter. However, writing such an initial request can feel intimidating and employees can get nervous about what to include in the letter and how to word it. I often suggest employees consider making a written request so they can decide what to say and how to say it without the stress of a face-to-face meeting with their employer. The first step in requesting an accommodation in the workplace is to decide how to make the request. From the desk of Jose Gonzalez Lopez, MPH, Employment Specialist
