Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), reasonable accommodations must be provided to allow a qualified employee to perform the essential functions of a job. These accommodations could range from reserved parking, to a specific software program, to allowing service animals in the workplace.

Consider a situation in which a person with a physical disability is hired in a car manufacturing company. As his manager, how would you determine a reasonable and appropriate accommodation for your new hire?

Consider if the new hire requested an inappropriate accommodation, how would you respond? What are 2 resources you could use to support your effort? Discuss your responses and provide links to the resources.
