ADA Accommodations Process (Staff)

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) protects individuals with disabilities from discrimination in the workplace. The ADA makes it unlawful for an employer to discriminate against a qualified individual because of a disability in any employment practices - such as, recruiting, hiring, firing, pay, promotions, and all other employment-related activities. Thompson School District provides reasonable accommodations, if needed, to perform essential functions of a job.

An individual with a disability may require an accommodation to perform the essential functions of their job. Depending on the circumstances, some accommodations could include:

  • Making existing facilities readily accessible and usable by individuals with disabilities
  • Modifying a work schedule, such as including more frequent breaks
  • Acquiring or modifying equipment or devices, such as a headset or a sit/stand desk
  • Providing a qualified reader or interpreter

*These are only examples. The accommodations that can be made in your case may depend on the nature of your disability, your school or location, and other factors.
