WORKPLACE DISABILITY ACCOMMODATIONS:
Documenting the Interactive Process, Essential Job Functions,
and Disciplinary Issues
Presented By Jane Kow, Founder of HR Law Consultants & Roberta Etcheverry, CEO of Diversified Management Group (DMG)
9:30 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, October 3, 2013
Alameda County Training and Conference Center
125 Twelfth Street – 4th Floor | Oakland, CA
OVERVIEW:
Learn a step-by-step approach to documenting the interactive process when providing workplace accommodations and medical leaves for employees with disabilities. Understand how an effectively crafted job description, with clearly defined job qualifications, work demands and essential functions, is critical to the entire process. Review how to document employee requests for accommodations, when an offer of accommodations is made, when employee requests are unreasonable or result in undue hardship, and also when performance, misconduct and absenteeism issues warrant disciplinary action. Two workplace disability experts will provide easy to follow guidelines for creating clear, accurate and effective job descriptions, memos to employees to document the 6 required steps of the interactive process necessary for determining reasonable accommodations, as well as disciplinary memos to address attendance, performance and misconduct issues, which will help minimize the risk of a disability discrimination lawsuit.
