1.2.3 Reasonable Accommodations for Applicants

W-2 agencies must follow the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Agency workers must offer and provide reasonable accommodations to applicants who disclose a disability. Examples of reasonable accommodations may include reading materials aloud, providing materials in different formats, or going to the individual’s home or other mutually agreeable location to complete the EA application in person. All W-2 agency workers must be familiar with current civil rights standards for service delivery and resources available to ensure the EA program is accessible to all applicants. (See W-2 Manual Appendix, W-2 Agency Civil Rights Obligations) Examples of accommodations are listed in the W-2 Manual Appendix, Reasonable Accommodation.
