Workplace adjustments allow a person to do their job safely and productively, in an inclusive environment. They’re very often the only thing that distinguishes someone with disability in the workplace.
Here are some examples:
• Allowing a person with disability to have some flexibility in their working hours, such as working part-time, starting and finishing later, or teleworking for part of the week
• Introducing fair, more equitable recruitment processes, such as standardised interviews
Redistributing minor duties (not inherent requirements of a job) that a person with disability finds difficult to do
• Buying or modifying equipment, such as speech recognition software for someone with vision impairment, or an amplified phone for a person who is hearing impaired
• Height-adjustable work stations
