Accommodating cognitive and neurological disabilities, such as mental health conditions, attention deficit / hyperactivity disorder, brain injury and seizure disorders, in the workplace may pose unique considerations that do not exist with other disabilities, as the need for accommodations may not always be apparent. Potential complexities may arise in understanding employee limitations, identifying the root causes, and determining effective accommodations. Employers may encounter scenarios involving medical documentation, applying performance and conduct standards, ensuring safety, preserving confidentiality, and more. Join us for a session that explores complex accommodation scenarios in the workplace and discover effective solutions to help maintain productive employees with diverse needs.
