2026 Tools & Tactics Webinar: Understanding the Forces Reshaping Accommodation Requests

Three forces are reshaping the accommodation landscape right now.

  • Return-to-office mandates have created a new wave of requests that sit at the intersection of operational policy and legal obligation, requiring employers to navigate competing priorities they weren’t facing a few years ago.
  • Mental health needs have become one of the most common — and most complex — drivers of accommodation requests, demanding approaches that traditional processes were often not built to handle.
  • And as the workforce ages, chronic physical conditions are an increasingly significant reality that HR teams can expect to manage with greater frequency in the years ahead.
    What ties all three together is a single question: Is your accommodation infrastructure keeping pace? That means looking beyond process to examine policy design, manager preparedness, and the support resources available to employees navigating challenging circumstances.
  • Attendees will leave with practical insights across each of these areas and a clearer sense of where to focus next.
