REQUESTING JOB ACCOMMODATIONS -- PART 6



THE FINE ART OF REQUESTING 
JOB ACCOMMODATIONS
 
Here are some strategies to consider when asking for accommodations on the job:

Start as early as possible, preferably as soon as you’ve accepted an offer of employment.

The longer your wait, the easier it becomes for your employer to get the impression that you’re doing just swell without accommodations.

When you do finally request that lever handle on your office door or lowered light switch, your boss may be baffled as to how you were coping before.

That kind of confusion you don’t need.
