THE FINE ART OF REQUESTING
JOB ACCOMMODATIONS
Here are some strategies to consider when
asking for accommodations on the job:
Be confident, gentle but firm and direct.
Know your rights and assert them without
being obnoxious, or just as bad, tentative.
If you waiver on whether you really need an
accommodation or not, you’ll leave your boss guessing and possibly even
doubting the genuineness of your need.
Though the accommodations will make your life
easier, emphasize that you want them so you can be the best employee possible
for the organization.
