Overview: Making physical modifications within the existing work environment is a healthy start on making the workplace more accommodating for future employees who may have disabilities. Even though employers are not required to make workplace changes until an accommodation is actually necessary, they do have an obligation under Title I of the American Disabilities Act (ADA) to provide reasonable accommodations for qualified job applicants with disabilities to participate in the hiring process. Therefore, taking preventative action will reduce the risk of noncompliance when interviewing people with disabilities and may limit future exposure to ADA litigation.
