Workplace Accommodation
Stuck on whether a workplace accommodation is needed?.
We find the middle ground when a Medical Need and/or a Duty to Accommodate feels out of reach.
In British Columbia, employers have a legal Duty to Accommodate employees who demonstrate a Medical Need, up to the point of Undue Hardship. But translating medical restrictions into everyday workplace realities isn't always simple.
When communication breaks down, medical notes feel vague, or operational demands conflict with health limitations, you need a solution.
Human Quotient provides independent, neutral, and BC-law-aligned mediation to help employers and employees co-create practical, reasonable workplace solutions.
