The Job Accommodation Network (JAN) newsletter is now available on their website. JAN is a free service originally intended for employers who are figuring out how to accommodate their employees with disabilities. They have expanded to become a resource for information about the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and for anyone with a disability who needs to find something to help them do what they need to do. This is a free service. You can use their A to Z accommodation list online or you can talk to a consultant for help finding what you need.
The January edition of the JAN Newsletter focuses on supporting and accommodating employees with substance use disorders. The holiday/post-holiday season can be stressful and may trigger a relapse for some people in recovery. Now is a good time for employers to adopt recovery-ready workplace policies and practices to help support employees with substance use disorders and ensure they get the accommodations they need to continue working. JAN offers resources to help, including topical publications and A to Z accommodation ideas at AskJAN.org and free one-on-one consultations.
Read the January 2024 edition of the JAN Newsletter.
