Managing a health condition or disability that affects your performance at work can be challenging and even frightening. Workplace accommodations under the ADA can help.
Making It Work is an easy-to-understand guide to workplace accommodations under the Americans with Disabilities Act. It will help you:
- Understand how the ADA applies to you and your job
- Research, request, and negotiate a reasonable accommodation with your employer
- Learn about special cases: service animals, temporary workforce, veterans’ issues, and the mature workforce (workers over 55)
- Understand how to use leave and other benefits
- Find your path to working and living well with a health condition
Author Sheryl Ellis offers guidance from her own experience as a human resources professional, a Certified ADA Coordinator, and an employee with a health condition.

- Employers who want to help their employees be informed, educated, and knowledgeable about Title I of the ADA and the accommodation process while also assisting them in complying and reducing the risks of liability
