Welcome to the Consumer Advocacy Association's page on reasonable accommodations for disability, religion, and pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions. We're committed to promoting equality and ensuring that all individuals have access to the accommodations they need to fully participate in society, regardless of their disability, religious beliefs, or pregnancy status.
Reasonable accommodations are modifications or adjustments to a job, workplace, or environment that enable individuals with disabilities, religious beliefs, or pregnancy-related medical conditions to perform their job duties or participate in activities on an equal basis with others. These accommodations are required by law under various federal and state statutes, including the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, and the Pregnancy Discrimination Act.
Disability Accommodations: Examples of reasonable accommodations for individuals with disabilities may include providing assistive technology, modifying work schedules or duties, providing accessible facilities, or allowing telecommuting or remote work arrangements.
Religious Accommodations: Reasonable accommodations for religious beliefs may include allowing time off for religious observances, providing a designated space for prayer or meditation, accommodating dress code requirements, or allowing for religious dietary restrictions.
Pregnancy-Related Accommodations: Pregnancy-related accommodations may include providing ergonomic equipment, modifying work duties or schedules to accommodate medical appointments or pregnancy-related limitations, offering temporary reassignment to less physically demanding tasks, or providing lactation accommodations.
Federal and state laws prohibit discrimination on the basis of disability, religion, and pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions, and require employers, housing providers, and public accommodations to provide reasonable accommodations to individuals who need them. If you believe you have been denied a reasonable accommodation or subjected to discrimination, you have the right to file a complaint with the appropriate government agency and seek legal recourse.
