Course Description

Complimentary DMi Webinar

“I am having a tough day.” An employer’s potential obligation to provide a reasonable accommodation starts with a request. When the request relates to an individual’s mental health condition, employers are often uncertain whether a request has been made and the extent to which issues such as workplace stress must be accommodated.

This webinar will explore how employers can assess and address accommodation requests from employees with mental health conditions, such as stress and anxiety. We will discuss the employer’s interactive process, the legal considerations for providing accommodations for mental health disabilities, and how to balance the employee’s needs with your organization’s operational requirements.

This program will focus on:

  • What documentation is appropriate to request from an individual seeking an accommodation for a mental health disability
  • How to evaluate whether requests such as remote work are reasonable accommodations
  • Best practices for creating a workplace culture that supports employees’ mental health and provides necessary accommodations

Credits: 1.0 CA CLE; 1.0 NJ CLE; 1.0 NY CLE; 1.0 PA CLE; 1.0 HRCI; 1.0 SHRM (Other states may be available for CLE credits upon request)
