GUIDELINES

REASONABLE ACCOMMODATION

ASSESSMENT GUIDELINES

The Reasonable Accommodation Guidelines is a tool for all City managers and supervisors to assist them in complying with ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) and FEHA (Fair Employment and Housing Act) requirements. In addition, this guideline will help managers and supervisors ensure that medically restricted employees and job applicants are given an opportunity to fully participate in the workplace. Questions and issues regarding the Reasonable Accommodation process, ADA, and or FEHA are usually complex and fact specific. You are encouraged to use the appropriate department and City resources to assist you as follows:
