What is Reasonable Accommodation?
A modification or adjustment to a job, work environment, or employment practice that enables a qualified employee or applicant with a disability to perform essential job functions and enjoy equal employment opportunities.
Why it matters in hiring
Reasonable Accommodation comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
