Term · Economic statistics · MLC-T-ECS-000007

Modification or adjustment to a job, or a change in the work environment, that enables a person with a disability or some other constraint to perform equally with someone without a disability or to carry out the occupational tasks of the job as generally performed by someone without a disability.

Note: The Occupational Requirements Survey (ORS) collects data only on how work is performed without accommodations, because not all employers can offer the same accommodations.
