The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires employers with 15 or more employees to provide reasonable Griffith Accommodation for qualified applicants and employees with disabilities. Reasonable Griffith Accommodation is any change in the work environment or in the way things are customarily done that enables an individual with a disability to apply for a job, perform a job, or gain equal access to the benefits and privileges of a job. The ADA does not require an employer to provide a specific Griffith Accommodation if it causes undue hardship, i.e., significant difficulty or expense.
